NAME

6       perluts - Perl under UTS
7

SYNOPSIS

9       This document can be read as is: as README.uts, or you can read it
10       after you build your package using "man perluts".
11
12       The purpose is to help you build Perl for UTS, which, if you follow
13       these instructions, should be easy, and result in a solidly working
14       installation.
15

DESCRIPTION

17       Perl 5.7.2 (Developmental) or Perl 5.8.x (forthcoming) for UTS
18

BUILDING PERL ON UTS

20       NOTE: Some sites have redefined the way uname works, and if yours does
21       this, special steps must be taken so that Configure can recognize your
22       system as a UTS system.  To see if you are in this category, issue the
23       command "uname -a".  It should look something like:
24
25         uts juno 4 4.4 9672 370
26
27       At any rate, the first field should be "uts".  If this is not the case;
28       supposing it is, say telcoUTS, create a script, uts/uname (i.e. uname,
29       in the subdirectory "uts" of the main Perl source dir):
30          # uname
31          /usr/bin/uname "$@" | sed -e 's/^telcoUTS/uts/'
32
33       and when you execute Configure, do it as below, except for adding
34       PATH=uts:$PATH as a prefix.  I.e. do:
35
36          PATH=uts:$PATH ./Configure ...
37
38       There is no need to do an interactive configure, just type
39
40         ./Configure -de [-Dusedevel] [-Doptimize=-g ] 2>&1 | tee Conf.out
41
42       "-Dusedevel" may be required to configure Perl 5.7.2 non-interactively.
43       Use -Doptimize=-g if you want to run Perl under sdb or gdb, OR if you
44       want to be able to use the -D command line flags to perl, which are
45       occasionally useful in debugging perl scripts.
46
47       In this and the following steps, the "2>&1 | tee XXX.out" records all
48       output from the process, which will be useful if anything unexpected
49       goes wrong.
50
51       Then do the compilation with
52
53         make 2>&1 | tee make.out
54
55       Finally, test using
56
57         make test 2>&1 | tee make-test.out
58
59       In the output, the only failures you should see should look like:
60
61          lib/Math/BigInt/t/bigfltpm.........Use of uninitialized value ...
62          FAILED at test 57
63          lib/Math/BigInt/t/bigintc..........ok
64          lib/Math/BigInt/t/bigintpm.........FAILED at test 204
65          lib/Math/BigInt/t/mbimbf...........Use of uninitialized value ...
66          Illegal division by zero at ../lib/Math/BigInt/Calc.pm line 314.
67          FAILED at test 71
68          lib/Math/Complex...................exp: OVERFLOW
69          FAILED at test 250
70          lib/Math/Trig......................exp: OVERFLOW
71          ok
72          lib/Memoize/t/array................ok
73               ...
74          lib/Net/protoent...................ok
75          lib/Net/servent....................FAILED at test 0
76
77       This means that everything passes except for some problems in the
78       packages "Math::BigInt", "Math::Complex", and "Math::Trig".  The
79       lib/Net/servent failure seems to be a bug in the test program.  To
80       confirm this, from the main Perl source dir, do:
81
82          LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd` ./perl -Ilib lib/Net/servent.t
83
84       and it should output
85
86          1..3
87          ok 1
88          ok 2
89          ok 3
