If you read this file _as_is_, just ignore the funny characters you see. It is written in the POD format (see pod/perlpod.pod) which is specially designed to be readable as is. =head1 NAME perlhaiku - Perl version 5.10+ on Haiku =head1 DESCRIPTION This file contains instructions how to build Perl for Haiku and lists known problems. =head1 BUILD AND INSTALL The build procedure is completely standard: ./Configure -de make make install Make perl executable and create a symlink for libperl: chmod a+x /boot/common/bin/perl cd /boot/common/lib; ln -s perl5/5.16.3/BePC-haiku/CORE/libperl.so .

This is due to Haiku not implementing C</dev/log> support yet. =item * The tests F<lib/Net/Ping/t/450_service.t> and F<lib/Net/Ping/t/510_ping_udp.t> fail.
