#18391: "use Tk" in Perl causes bus error ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: marsh@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: Tk tcl perl | Port: p5-tk ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Changes (by jmr@…): * port: tk perl => p5-tk Old description:

Hello,

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I get this error. Here's what I did:

1) Install darwinports. 2) Install perl 5.8 3) Install p5-mime-tools 4) Install tk 5) Install p5-tk 6) Make this test perl script (after much pain):

#!/opt/local/bin/perl

use Tk;

print "Hello World/n";

The use Tk always throws a bus error.

Is this a bug in the perl/tk packages, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

As noted in #14018, there's an upstream bug report at http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=39593.

Also as noted there, if you rebuild your perl5 port with the +shared variant, the Tk module will work. Ideally, the p5-tk would depend on a perl5 port with the +shared variant, but I'm not sure whether it's possible to require a specific variant. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18391#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Sorry for the newbie question, but is there an online resource someone could point me to on how I can do that? Thank you! -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/18391#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
