Rob,
it must be IMO gmake-related issue as on Strawberry 5.24.0 (gcc-4.9.2 +
dmake + EU::MM-7.16) Prima-1.46 installs fine

Subject: Re: [Pdl-devel] [OT] Prima-1.46 with perl-5.24.0 on Windows
Hey Rob,
What is the actual setup that leads to this issue?
My perls are binary-compatible with (and essentially the same as) Strawberry
Perl.
For perl-5.24.0, Strawberry have built using gcc-4.9.2 and their make
utility is 'dmake'.
My perl-5.24.0 was built using gcc-5.3.0 and the make utility is 'gmake'.
Nevertheless, both perls are essentially compatible so long as one attends
to the other relevant factors - ie ivtype, nvtype, threadedness, etc.
Dmitry has historically been very responsive, so if he knows the build
system, I wouldn't be surprised if he quickly got the bottom of it. (And
if I can find time, I may try to fix it myself.)
I intended to cc Dmitry when I sent my original post ... but forgot until
after I had hit the 'send' button.
So I immediately forwarded that original post to him.
True to form, he did respond quickly and suggested I try the current git
version of Prima.
So I grabbed the current git version of Prima (dfbfbe3), but it's still the
same error.
Perl-5.24.0 is the first stable release of perl for which 'gmake' is an
allowable choice of make utility on MS Windows. (I think kmx was hoping to
have Strawberry 5.24.0 releases use 'gmake', too - but the Strawberry 5.24.0
that I grabbed uses 'dmake'.)
So ... given that 'gmake' on native windows is so new I would think that, if
this actually *is* an issue with gmake on Windows, then it quite possibly is
one that has not been raised before.
I did wonder whether, somewhere in the Prima source, there might be the
assumption that $Config{make} cannot be 'gmake' on Windows. That was the
case for quite a long time ... but no longer.
If it's relevant, my EU-MM version was 7.1001 - which I think is the EU::MM
that shipped with 5.24.0.
I've just updated to EU-MM-7.18 but that makes no difference either.
Cheers,
Rob
