Package: perl Version: 5.12.4-1 Severity: important Tags: patch User: debian-h...@lists.debian.org Usertags: hurd
Hi, currently[1], perl does not compile, because it cannot find the Berkeley DB library. The attached patch adds hints for ext/ODBM_File, and improving the general "gnu" hints, copying a couple of stuff which makes sense from the linux.pl hints, like the library patch search, the pthread linking (needed on hurd). (Most probably the same patch could be applied to perl 5.14 too, although I have not tested it.)
