Dear Daisuke Maki,
I've had an entertaining morning building Perl 5.8.3 and getting
DateTime::Calendar::Japanese etc installed. Perl 5.8.3 itself was trivial
- I'm glad to say.
I ran into a bigger problem with DateTime::Calendar::Japanese etc -- they
need the GMP (GNU Multi-Precision Math)
Hi, thanks for the feedback!
GMP in itself is not necessary -- it's much faster if you have it,
though. Did it *force* you to install GMP? I thought I put that
requirement in the recommends parameter (like this:
http://search.cpan.org/src/DMAKI/DateTime-Util-Calc-0.01/Build.PL).
Perhpas I
insanity; I enjoy every minute of it!

And, I suppose, it might be sensible to let the Math::BigInt::GMP people
know there are problems when their code is automatically installed on a
system without GMP. There's probably not much they can do except improve
the error messages - if GMP

There's App::Info and Alien for detecting non-Perl dependencies, but
someone would have to code up the libgmp parts explicitly.
Well, Alien mainly exists as an idea in Arthur Bergman's head. (Maybe
he has been taken over by an alien?). It's goal is

Thanks for the pointer to App::Info - it looks interesting.
DBD::Informix already has to do a lot of stuff like that - and has
classes which supports its efforts. Integrating that into a App::Info
framework probably isn't too hard.
No,
