in thread Does Perl run on ARM?

I just upped my DS213 from DSM-4.3-3827 to 5.0-4458-Update2. Not all went as smooth as I hoped. Besides all the usual broken symlinks, there is now a new sshd running that makes logging in a whole lot more troublesome.

Backup using rsync still works, but not as a normal user, only as root :( :(

Linux 2.6.32.12 [DSM 5.0-4458-2] Feroceon 88FR131 rev 1 (v5l)/0 armv5 +tel 499 Mb This is perl 5, version 18, subversion 1 (v5.18.1) built for armle-lin +ux

That perl is cripled though:

Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good CONFIG key 'lddlflags' does not exist in Config.pm CONFIG key 'ldflags' does not exist in Config.pm make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/perl5/core_perl/CORE/config +.h', needed by `Makefile'. Stop.

So building any sensible modules (V, Test::NoWarnings, DBI, DBD::Pg, Text::CSV_XS, Data::Peek, Test::Tester, DBD::SQLite, Tie::Hash::DBD, DBD::CSV) from that is close to impossible


Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn
