Transaction: Ticket created by MJAIX
Queue: PAR-Packer
Subject: Fix for PAR-Packer 1.024 with a nonstandard libperl.so name
Broken in: 1.024
Severity: Normal
Owner: RSCHUPP
Requestors: mj...@cpan.org
Status: new
Ticket <URL: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=101770 >
Having Perl built with a shared library named differently, PAR ceased to work
properly.
For some time, my resulting executable had not been static regarding libperl,
and with PAR-Packer 1.024 (no test done with 1.023), even compilation did not
work anymore.
The root cause is that in myldr/Makefile.PL, in one place /\s+-lperl\s+/ gets
blindly stripped off from ldflags, although some lines apart the libperl name
is obeyed.
Detected in 1.024 (present in earlier releases).
Fixed in 1.025 almost at light speed :-); this entry is for record completeness.
Successfully tested 1.025 on Linux and Solaris 10.

# In the $dynperl case, we've already found the $libperl DSO.
# The only problem is: when the linker links $par_exe against $libperl
# we don't know what name is used to refer to $libperl in the executable
