Perl 5.6.1 on RedHatLinux 9.0

[Donny Kwan, P.Eng.]

I need to install Perl 5.6.1 on RH linux 9.0,
after I Configure, make gives me this

make: ***No rule to make target `<built-in>', needed by 'miniperlmain.o'
Stop.

I tried to deletel all <built-in> in makefile, but no luck.. kindly advise.

This is a nuisance; but it really will build if you remove all the
"<built-in>" and "<command line>" entries from the makefile.

Presumably this is all fixed in the forthcoming 5.6.2.

thanks Steve,

after deleting <built-in> and <command> from makefile
make gives this msg.

make[1]: Entering directory`/home/name/perl-5.6.1/utils`

You have to do the same thing again in the subdirectories,
since they have makefiles as well, and those makefiles also
contain the "<built-in>" and "<command line>" entries.

(Think.)

yeah, it works...thanks steve
recap:
just remove <built-in>, <command> from all the makefile in both current and
subdirectory.
