Description menger 1999-02-15 06:43:22 UTC
Trying to compile MIME-Base64-2.10 on Redhat Linux 5.2
running perl rpm perl-5.004m7-1.i386.rpm fails but on
perl-5.004m4-1.i386.rpm (one included in original install
from ftp site) it works fine.

Error reported during make:

Comment 1 David Lawrence 1999-05-31 21:38:59 UTC
I obtained the latest release of the module MIME-Base64-2.11 from the
cpan.org ftp site and compiled successfully on a stock 5.2 system so I
would suggest obtaing the newer version since there seems to be an
error in 2.10.
