Re^3: DBI.c: loadable library and perl binaries are mismatched

Believe me, I have complained (see this thread https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/56247/). Yet, other members of this Perl Monk forum seem to be unsure of why the handshake key values are mismatched, and for that matter, where, what and why they are created . . .and what is the source of them. All I know is that they are part of "XS World", and that's way above my pay grade.

I'm just an applications programmer -- not a compiler writer.

forget all that freebsd ports stuff If you want to install perl get it from search.cpan.org/dist/perl, untar, then run sh Configure -Dprefix=/home/username/perl -des -Dextras="DBI LWP::Protocol::https" then 'make test', if all goes well, run 'make install', and use your new perl	[reply]

Actually I was looking at CPAN early this morning (3:30 AM CDT). There is a DBI bundle -- If I download that, will it make the Perl5 core as part and parcel of the DBI. That's what the FreeBSD ports p5-DBI does, yet it still fails the key values handshake thing.	[reply]

If I download that, will it make the Perl5 core as part and parcel of the DBI. What does that mean? Try it and see what happens?	[reply]
