Description of problem: any perl script using Compress::Zlib will not work or compile Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Version: 2.005 Release: 2.fc8 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run a simple test perl script :- use Compress::Zlib; my $c = compress("test string"); 2. 3. Actual results: compile errors :- Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/Scalar/Util.pm line 30. is only avaliable with the XS version at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Compress/Zlib.pm line 9 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Compress/Zlib.pm line 9. Compilation failed in require at /home/rsk/projects/junk/comp.pl line 6. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /home/rsk/projects/junk/comp.pl line 6. Expected results: no errors! Additional info: I've marked this urgent as this bug is stopping my Slimserver music player from starting. This is the same as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=434574 but much more URGENT as I cannot play any of my music :(
