<0> Hey guys... i've got a perl 5.8.5 specific mystery. I previously had Perl 5.8.6 on my FC4 box, but i needed to downgrade to perl 5.8.5. So I compiled it from source. The issue is, when looking up a host, Perl 5.8.5 checks the DNS first and then my /etc/host file later... My nsswitch.conf however indicates "hosts: files, dns though. Perl 5.8.6 worked correctly.
<1> dotdotdot
<2> Botje: if a directory is in @INC such as /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.6/x86_64-linux-thread-multi , is it supposed to traverse subdirectories in there as well? (like in this case, Digest?)
<3> This laptop thinks it is clever about fan usage to conserve power
<3> With the result that it crashes every 20 minutes by overheating
<3> Despite being on AC power!
<4> Brend: can you force it from software? Most any Dell can, I know that.
<3> Dunno. The cover says "Novatech"
<4> heh
<4> good luck ;)
<2> anyone?
<5> bueller?
<3> Something dee-oh-oh economics
<2> or are you all more interested in overheating laptops and sports drinks :)
<2> I'm up against a deadline here, (tomorrow morning) and got this dropped on me at the last moment. I have no prior experience with mod_perl
<6> which perl module can i use to strip the HTML tags and print the text, but not all on the same line, instead a line by line dump, similar to lynx -dump ?



<2> and I would be eternally greatful to anyone who could ***ist
<7> MrBIOS-work: I don't use mod_perl, sorry.
<2> Yaakov: this isn't really a mod_perl specific problem, I don't think
<2> more of a generic Perl/@INC problem
<7> MrBIOS-work: is it laptop-related?
<8> how can i fix a "make had returned bad status, install seems impossible" with cpan?
<9> MrBIOS-work: yes .. if that path is in inc, and you are including Digest::MD5, (mod_)perl will look for it
<7> MrBIOS-work: The environment in mod_perl has specific--non-laptop-like aspects--with which I am unfamiliar.
<9> if it's not a laptop and it doesn't wibble, Yaakov doesn't handle it. :)
<10> jade: there is HTML strip
<2> Yaakov: I think MD5 is being improperly included....
<10> err HTML::Strip
<6> Khisanth, thanks
<10> I use HTML::TreeBuilder
<7> Botje has committed to helping you.
<2> Yaakov: what is the proper way to include Digest::MD5 ?
<2> Botje: rather
<7> use Digest::MD%;
<7> err
<7> 5
<2> okay, the bastards code is doing use MD5
<10> jade: but lynx actually renders the HTML
<10> if I recall correctly :)
<9> MrBIOS-work: I sincerely hope for you the original coder didn't "optimize" all of his use statements like that.
<10> looks like ancient code or someone has failed to keep up with perl development
<9> grab yourself an axe and start the hunting down
<10> Botje: MD5 is an actual module though :)
<9> yes. but it ****s.
<10> well it's just a wrapper around Digest::MD5 so no more and no less than Digest::MD5
<10> otoh MD5 isn't included with the latest perl while Digest::MD5 is
<11> Hi Khisanth
<2> what does "Premature end of script headers" mean?
<11> It means you did something wrong and the script died before it could do anything or something
<11> 500
<11> check your logs
<12> hey, i need a little quick help w/ vba, but there seems to be no channel for it so i'll ask here, sorry :/
<13> uh
<12> how would i go about retrieving an array and a string from the same function
<14> haha
<15> aush vba !? jesus christ what's next java >=)
<16> this look familar to anyone? Argument ""1"" isn't numeric in numeric gt (>) at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/HTTP/Cookies.pm
<14> yes, ask about php, sed, vba, haskell here
<11> yay
<12> mm supose i'll just get wry remarks then?
<11> aush, by retrieve, do you mean return?
<12> not necessarily
<11> it's a simple yes or no answer
<12> as i doubt it will let you return different types
<11> question rather
<12> what about a pointer, call function and have function ***ign something to pointer
<12> would that work?
<17> what do you mean retrieve then?
<12> just set
<12> heh don't worry i think i answered my own question
<12> albeit my wording is apparently a bit lacking
<2> Botje: yay! that fixed it...thanks a ton
<16> bug report time...
<7> Hey, MrBIOS-work, what about ME?!



<11> :D
<9> share the warmth.
<11> Botje <3
<10> shift8: looks like you might have something funky in your cookie
<16> it's trying to eval the cookie version number, but getting a quoted value.
<18> Which provides encoding::source and encoding::stdio
<16> Khisanth; its a cookie from a webobjects server
<18> Problem solved :)
<16> Juerd: what's this?
<8> im trying to use CPAN to install DBD::mysql - however it seems to fail with this message - /usr/bin/ld: table of contents for archive: /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.a is out of date; rerun ranlib(1) (can't load from it)
<8> - I have mysql 5.1 installed. Is that the issue?
<18> shift8: Different
<16> shift8: k
<13> punkcut: try rerunning ranlib on /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.a
<9> punkcut: try reinstalling libmysqlclient?
<8> infi : http://pastebin.com/736129
<19> The paste 736129 has been moved to http://erxz.com/pb/1361
<13> broken. reinstall.
<8> ??
<8> it was a binary install. and PHP works fine with it
<13> it's probably linked against the dynamic library, this one is static.
<13> or something. nfi.
<16> punkcut: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-mac/2005-October/002396.html
<20> shift8's url is at http://xrl.us/mqef
<8> how incredibly... frustrating..
<2> Botje: I spoke too soon..it's partially working, but what happened to MD5->hexhash?
<2> Botje: is it now md5_hex ?
<8> infi shift8 - it got a little farther this time but seems to be choking on trying to log into mysql.. that doesnt make much sense to me considering it never prompted for a username or p*** (why would it need it anyway?) - http://pastebin.com/736141
<19> The paste 736141 has been moved to http://erxz.com/pb/1362
<9> MrBIOS-work: yes ..
<16> punkcut: np = just force install and use real credentials when you use dbi
<21> BOTJE NO.
<9> as Khisanth said, MD5 is a wrapper around Digest::MD5
<8> thanks shift8
<9> BUU YES!
<6> can i set the value of a hash to have two separate fields, e.g. [$score, $text] ?
<3> That's only one!
<13> no, I think he's asking permission.
<10> hash values can only be scalars, references are scalars, follow line of thought to the logical conclusion :)
<9> jade: yes. perldoc perlreftut knows more :)
<19> perlreftut - Perl references short introduction. To access this perldoc please type, at a command line, 'perldoc perlreftut'. You may also find it at http://perldoc.perl.org/perlreftut.html
<6> Botje, thanks
<9> Khisanth: fluffy kittens with razors strapped to their ears?
<10> exactly
<3> No more logic for you, Botje
<9> Brend: not even a little formula?
<3> NO
<3> Go to your room
<9> not even a measly conjunction operator? :(
<3> You can have "nand" and _nothing else_
<3> _ever_
<9> :'(
<9> why NAND, anyway?
<11> Brend :)
<9> why is that the basic building block? :)
<3> Because it was in my discrete maths courses
<11> damn, **** this
<3> And there was much suffering
<11> programming is too hard
<9> Daveman: let's become prostitutes!
<11> :(
<11> I already am
<11> :P
<11> shift8, go buy yourself a candy bar
<16> oh - i see. you's one of dem high dollar prostitutes!
<11> duh?
<11> whatever
<11> go ask evan
<11> :P
<16> heh
<16> anyone bay area locl here now?
