On Mac OS X 10.5.8, Configure.pl : lazy symbol binding failed

[jgabr]

Hi,

I'm running Mac OS X 10.5.8 with the dev tools installed.

I just downloaded parrot 1.4.0, unpacked it into my ~/opt/src directory, and ran perl Configure.pl --prefix=/Users/john/opt.

Although the configure seemed to succeed, it complained thusly:

auto::readline -      Does your platform support readline...dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _rl_get_keymap
  Referenced from: /Users/john/opt/src/parrot-1.4.0/./test_2640
  Expected in: dynamic lookup

dyld: Symbol not found: _rl_get_keymap
  Referenced from: /Users/john/opt/src/parrot-1.4.0/./test_2640
  Expected in: dynamic lookup

.............done.

At the end, it reported:

Okay, we're done!

You can now use `make' to build your Parrot.
After that, you can use `make test' to run the test suite.

Happy Hacking,

Here is some other info that was in the output from running parrotbug:

Unfortunately, this is a recurring and unsolved problem on Mac OS X. It was reported, for instance, in  RT #52212 a year-and-a-half ago. If we had a clear understanding of what was involved, we would have solved it by now.

Setting aside this problem, were you able to make and make test successfully?

Thanks for your report.

I have seen these errors occasionally on OS X 10.5.x, but they never prevented me from building.

Yes, I believe so. Though, there was a hiccup at the end of make test:

I've got perl 5.8.9 installed:

$ port installed | grep perl
  perl5.8 @5.8.9_3 (active)

$ which perl
/opt/local/bin/perl

$ perl -v

This is perl, v5.8.9 built for darwin-2level
...

[jgabr]

Hm.

$ /usr/bin/perl -v

This is perl, v5.8.8 built for darwin-thread-multi-2level
(with 4 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)

I am working on the issue, and expect a candidate patch later today.

This appears to still be a problem with Rakudo Star on Mac OS 10.5.8.
