Hello:
On building POE 0.1502 on my Debian Sid machine with a locally build Perl 5.6.1, I get
what appear to be spurious complaints about missing items.
First, on executing perl Makefile.PL, I get:
Warning: prerequisite Exporter 0 not found at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm line 343
Then, upon executing make test, I get:
[snip..]
*** dependencies are installed or updated:
*** TestSetup wants Exporter
*** lib::TestSetup wants Exporter
*** samples/tk.perl wants Tk 800.021 or newer
*** t/06_tk.t wants Tk 800.021 or newer
*** Please consider installing the most recent: Exporter Tk
[..snip..]
*** POE::Kernel::Tk works better with Tk 800.021 or newer
*** TestSetup works better with Exporter
*** lib::TestSetup works better with Exporter
*** samples/tk.perl works better with Tk 800.021 or newer
*** t/06_tk.t works better with Tk 800.021 or newer
*** Please install the most recent: Exporter Tk
However, POE does in fact make test and install properly. My local perl is built in
/usr/local.
During the make test, the message:
skipped: need Tk 800.021 or newer installed but only have -1, set by base.pm
is also displayed. I have the latest Tk installed, and so of course is Exporter.
Below is my perl -V. I hope this is useful..
