I have to ask (mainly out of curiosity) - do you have any plans to

on pari-2.1.7 ?

I gather the "update" to 2.3.4 support must be not-all-that-trivial,
or you would have done it already.

I have tried (and failed) to build Math-Pari-2.010800 against 2.3.4.
The 'make' process runs fine - but there are numerous 'make test'
failures (on perl-5.10.0, btw), most of which don't obviously relate
to the fact that I've attempted to build against 2.3.4. Afaict, most
of the failures appear to be purely perl issues. Building against
2.1.7 works flawlessly, however.

Hi all,
I have a timing issue with the usage of "sleep" within my perl-expect
script.
This is an example script to describe my problem:
**********************************************************************************************************
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use Expect;

$timeout = 5;

$exp = new Expect();
$exp->raw_pty(1);
$exp->spawn("ssh -l username 10.17.39.29");

$exp->expect($timeout, [ "[Pp]assword" => sub { $_[0]->send("password
\n"); } ]);

$exp->expect($timeout, [ "prompt-string" => sub { $_[0]->send("ls -l
\n"); } ]);

sleep 2;

$exp->expect($timeout, [ "prompt-string" => sub { $_[0]->send("ls
\n"); } ]);

sleep 5;

i have many modules which inturn use among themselvs.. some times i
get the following error..
Can't locate <>.pm in @INC though it is present in that location.. i
doubt this occurs because of multiple or cyclic inclusions of
modules..
can any one suggest the way to find the error or avoidin them ?
thanks in advance

This has me puzzled. This code worked on another server, but it's
failing on perl v5.8.8, with Date::Manip loaded from CPAN today.

Trying to split html codes from perl program into individual files. In order
to pars html cod during execution (to replace dynamic variables) I am trying
to use HTML::Template methods. I am getting a Budzilla missing error:
"Can't locate Bugzilla/Constants.pm in
@INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/site/lib C:/Perl/lib .) at
C:/Perl/lib/HTML/template.pm

Tried to download Buzilla
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/webtools/bugzilla-3.0.5.tar.gz
but having trouble installing it. winzip fails.

Any help and ideas or other solution are appreciated.

I have following sample getting file via HTTPS protocal using
LWP::UserAgent module.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use LWP::UserAgent;
use LWP::Debug qw(+);

$uri = $ARGV[0];
$ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$ua->timeout(10);
#$ENV{HTTPS_PROXY} = 'myproxy.mydomain:8080'; # (A) this works
$ua->proxy('https', 'myproxy.mydomain:8080'); # (B) this
don't works at all

$response = $ua->get($uri);
if ($response->is_success) {
print $response->decoded_content;
}
else {
die $response->status_line;
}

Hi,

I know how to read and "tail" the Utmp files on the systems I have
access to. We now have OSX machines that are using the Utmpx system
and the records are not as straight forward to read.

I am looking at the User::Utmp modure since it will handle either type
of file. However it appears that it will read in the WHOLE Utmp(x)
file at one time and then hand the caller an array of hashes that
represents the file.

There is nothing wrong with that except I need to constantly be made
aware of new Utmp(x) entries as they appear. Closing and reopening
the Utmp(x) file and re-reading to to pull in a possible new couple of
lines seems very wasteful.

Do you have ideas?
