Cannot "test" or "make" modules.... Yet are "installed"? ..... Perl module : IO(IO.o) Devel::Peek(Peek.o) IPC::SysV(SysV.o)

[The Salisburys]

Hi all

Weird behaviour with perl modules!

Have you  seen & know anything at all on these common? problems ............ 

Any feedback whatsoever appreciated.

Are these modules really a problem? .....

TIA

Roger


Heres the Information :

Modules appear UPDATED
BUT ...................NOT reported correctly ????? perhaps by perl.

My system seems alright BUT I wonder what doubtful modules will do in time!


Only a GLOBAL  recompile will determine these problems.

"cpan> recompile"

Which means scrolling back 300 lines or more to find "NOT OK" strings or  "Error 1" strings.

make: *** [IO.o] Error 1
make: *** [SysV.o] Error 1
make: *** [Peek.o] Error 1



Perl module :  IO   Devel::Peek   IPC::SysV     are the problem ones

BELOW:
Three modules from CPAN  displayed  problem on many i386/i586 etc machines.
