#91 closed defect (wontfix)

Installation of libperl.so: -Duseshrplib=y

Description

The perl installation, as-is, does not create a proper libperl.so libary, and hence can cause some serious problems with specific packages later on down the road.

So id like to get one extra flag added to the perl installtion to build a proper libperl.so.

Don't fix this bug right away thou, it's going to take me a day or so, to make sure that this is the correct (and only) tag we need to set and to test it.

Well, i've looked over the problem some;

All that is needed is a -Duseshrplib option (perl's INSTALL file has some nice info about this) and it will build a libperl.so and install it in (roughly) /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux/CORE/libperl.so.

So, it should be safe to add, allthough i'm unsure what difference this will make by installing it (i'm still having that weird problem with apache, which was the only reason i brough this up..so...)
