Ive got two versions of Perl installed on a test server. One is the SuSe 9.x sanctioned v5.8.3 the other I built into /opt/perl which is latest...<br><br>I have some custom modules that handle some company specific db noise.
<br><br># File Crufty/cruft.pm<br>package cruft;<br><br>use strict;<br>use warnings;<br>use DBI;<br><br># do some stuff<br><br>1;<br><br># File DoTheCruft.pl<br>#!/opt/perl/bin/perl<br><br>use Crufty::cruft;<br><br>print "All your base\n";
<br><br>__END__<br><br>So, <a href="http://cruft.pm">cruft.pm</a> uses the DBI version installed under /opt/perl, correct? My experience says yes it uses whatever the caller is using, Im just checking myself.<br><br>Also When building DBD::Informix I get
<br>Failed Test Stat Wstat Total Fail List of Failed<br>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>t/t93lvarchar.t 255 65280 7 3 6-7<br><br>So... It fails. when I run perl t/t93lvarchar.t
<br><br>I get:<br># *** Testing of DBD::Informix complete ***<br># *** You appear to be normal! ***<br><br>So. Is forcing the install OK - I cannot see why this test would fail. Normally I would track the problem down and try to fix it, but according to the test - there is nothing to fix.
