Hello,
I am installing Module-Build-0.2808 on into Perl 5.8.8 64-bit on an HP
Itanium server. I am getting a failure in the compat and ppm tests; see
below.
How can I find out what compat test 25, ppm test 2 and ppm test 10 are
and/or what functions are failing? Is this to be expected? the summary
says it's 99.87% okay. Is it save to proceed with ./Build install?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Paula
