can't install on solaris :(

Hi,

 

Something happened between libwww-perl-5.834 and libwww-perl-5.835 that
broke this module for my env on solaris.

 

base/message..............ok 124/125# Test 125 got: <UNDEF>
(base/message.t at line 508)

#     Expected: '<?xml version="1.0"?>

<root>?ric</root>

'

base/message..............NOK 125#  base/message.t line 508 is:
ok($m->decoded_content, "<?xml
version=\"1.0\"?>\n<root>\xC9ric</root>\n");

base/message..............FAILED test 125


        Failed 1/125 tests, 99.20% okay

 

Per a suggestion at
http://www.justskins.com/forums/libwww-perl-5-803-failures-62519.html I
Change the

$m->decoded_content

calls to

$m->decoded_content(raise_error => 1); in ./t/base/message.t

 

I got this:

Unknown encoding 'utf-16-le' at ../blib/lib/HTTP/Message.pm line 378

        ...propagated at ../blib/lib/HTTP/Message.pm line 393.

 

I tried a couple different versions of libiconv because I've been
wrestling with it with another issue but that does not seem to fix
anything... So... for now, I've just changed my build script to use

CPAN::Shell->install("G/GA/GAAS/libwww-perl-5.834.tar.gz");

 

How long will 5.834 last on this sever before it gets moved to
http://history.cpan.org/ ?

 

Let me know if I can be of any assistance correcting this bug / let me
know how I can file a ticket if that will help.

 

I'm not sure if this will help
