Re: [wxperl-users] compiling wxPerl under Mac OS X

[Dave R. <dav...@ma...>]

ok, I've read the mailing list and have compiled Python.app as 
described. I saw the tail of the output, and planned to make such 
modifications to the Perl compilation, but right now I'm having problems 
getting Perl to compile at all under OS X. it's late, so I'll have 
another go tomorrow, but I'm concerned that this may prove problematic. 
the fact is, OS X comes with Perl 5.6.0, so few people perhaps will have 
bothered to re-compile Perl. we'll see...
