William, could you put the patch in the bazaar?

Please do share the patch. I would like to compare with my own patch. I am not a programmer so I would like to see if what I am doing is correct and learn.

P.V.Anthony

Thanks for the suggestion. The patch is in the bazaar. Let me know how it works or if you have suggested improvements.

You know, that's the 2nd time I've done that. There are so many fields to fill out now that I just overlook at one. It should be there now.

That looks to me that it is only -Accflags="-fPIC" that does the trick for you, is that right?

I do remember adding that flag. To be honest, I don't know what it does but it did help. Someone else gave me that suggestion from one of the forum discussions.

Looking back through the patch, it also looks like I had to fix some paths that were incorrect. It's been over 6 months since I built and ran that build script so I don't really remember the details.

Well, unfortunately when I patched that diff file in, it didn't seem to help, at least on this machine.  Whether I borked it elsewhere or not I don't know.  Decided to go straight to Ubuntu 32bit, and the WRE installed just peachy.

However, I am having issues with the mod_perl not starting up, that I've read about elsewhere.

The CPAN commands in the erratta didn't like the list::util one...  Should I just use 8.3 or wait for 8.5?
