[xpertmud-devel] Perl problem

[Julian B. <ju...@jl...>]

I am sure this is a problem with the way the perl plugin was built but
not sure what.

First I am using the Procedure Ernst showed me for building on Linux
with the compat dirs.

Anyway find attached the Makefile in the scripting/perl directory
generated by qmake.

When I bring up xpertmud, I load frontiers.xmud then connect to
btmux.com 5555 then type my connect message to login to the site.  I
imediately get these errors:

Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/i686-linux/auto/IO/IO.so' for module IO:
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/i686-linux/auto/IO/IO.so: undefined symbol: PL_sv_undef
at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/i686-linux/XSLoader.pm line 68.
 at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/i686-linux/IO.pm line 11
 Compilation failed in require at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/i686-linux/IO/Handle.pm
 line 260.
...

The message is much longer, but that last part with module IO is the
problem.

Any ideas?

Thanx

Julian
