I would like to package and maintain interchange for SUSE LINUX. http://www.icdevgroup.org. It requires a non-threaded perl. The way I have been doing it is compiling a non-threaded perl and putting it in /usr/local/bin/. Installing from CPAN using
/usr/local/bin/perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::Interchange'
Then creating the rpm for SUSE Linux. Interchange requires all these modules. I would like to use the build service to do this. I requested a build account in January of this year.
This may be a dumb question, but if interchange doesn't use threads, why can't it work with a thread enabled perl? (Thread enabled means that you *can* use threads, it doesn't mean that you have to).
The problem is that when a thread perl is used the system will hang and or become real slow. Some modules do have interaction problems. See... http://www.icdevgroup.org/pipermail/interchange-users/2005-June/043272.html If real care is taken one can use a threaded perl. I have just had too many problems all solved by using a non-thread perl.
