Hi all,
I posted this to comp.lang.perl.misc and was given a link to this list. Hopefully this
is appropriate for the list.
I just installed the PAR-0.75 package from CPAN and while all tests passed OK I'm
having a few problems.
It seems the 'parl' script that gets installed with it is munged. When I run the
following:
mdb:~/temp> pp -e 'print "HELLO!\n"' -o hello
I get:
/usr/local/bin/parl: FILE837fb41f/PAR.pmH#line: not found
/usr/local/bin/parl: 80: Syntax error: ";" unexpected
I checked the parl script and the first two lines were some kind of garbage. I removed
them and added '#!/usr/local/bin/perl' and now I get:
Unrecognized character \x15 at /usr/local/bin/parl line 436.
Line 436 is in the middle of a comment.
I just tried the previous version (0.74) and got the same problem.
I looked further into the parl script and found more lines that had garbage like:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@^U4c1372fb/PAR/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@N2#line 1 "../blib/lib/PAR/Heavy.pm"
(or something similar - the file names change)
Commenting out these lines results in:

In case its important, perl -V gives:

The strange things is that a previous install of PAR on perl 5.8.0 worked fine. Is
there something about perl 5.8.1 or 64bit ints that may be causing a problem?
