perl 5.16.3 released

H.Merijn Brand (procura — Wed, 03 Apr 2013 08:03:47 GMT

**bleep**! I really really miss the old ITRC site. This one is counterintuitive :(

Had to type this outside of the page in order not to crash it. The site is not

really friendly to Opera users on Linux.

We are happy to announce perl 5.16.3 the 4th release of version 16 of Perl 5.
The source has been released on 2013-03-11.

We hope to release 5.18.0 somewhere in May 2013

I am sorry I did not find enough time to build depots for 5.16.1 and 5.16.2,
but with 5.18.0 due in May, I thought it to be appropriate to invest the time.

On http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/ you will now find software depots for
perl-5.16.3 for HP-UX 11.00 PA2, 11.11 PA2, 11.23 IA64, and 11.31 IA64, all
with both 32bit and 64bit builds. The 5.16.3 depots have been downloaded 33
times already, so you seem to find it even without announcements here.

The 11.31 depot is built with GNU gcc-4.7.2, the others with GNU gcc 4.6.1.
These are also available on my site.

The depot for 10.20 is also done, built gcc-3.4.6. (Building on 11.31 took me

6 hours, on 10.20 it took me 12 days, most of that is automated/unattended).

The depots all include DBI-1.623 and Tk-804.030. See for depot release notes
the Perl section on my site. Afster installation, consider upgrading DBI to 1.265

or newer: it was released after these depots were created.

The SSL section is rather unstable for 10.20, probably because I run into
system resource limits (the D390 has just 512 Mb RAM). If anyone can help me
with the depot for trace for 10.20 (truss/tusc on 11.00 and up), it might
help with detecting failures. I still have all my CD's and DVD's, but trace
is not on any of them, and the HP porting center people told me all 10.20
related data has been deleted from their servers.

Feedback is welcome on h dot m dot brand at procura dot nl

Problem Solved. I was using oracle DBD 1.23 which has legacy parameters sv_yes/no , and the new perl does not Support.

Instead I used DBD 1.70 after which the program was sucessfully compiled.

Thanks , your depot software was very useful.
