To: perlbug@perl.com Subject: MM_Win32\, pm_to_blib section causing "Error -- Expecting macro or rule defn\," then "Error -- rem: No such file or directory" Reply-To: an400@ncf.ca
This is a bug report for perl from an400@ncf.ca\, generated with the help of perlbug 1.28 running under perl v5.6.0.
This error is occurring in all my generated makefiles.
Commands executed:
1) perl makefile.pl verb verb cc=gcc lib=d:/server/lib
2) dmake -f makefile -v output ends at : DMAKE.EXE: makefile: line 650: Error -- Expecting macro or rule defn\, found neither DMAKE.EXE: Closing [makefile]
2a) line 650 is $(PM_TO_BLIB) in :
# --- MakeMaker pm_to_blib section:
pm_to_blib: $(TO_INST_PM)
@$(PERL) "-I$(INST_ARCHLIB)" "-I$(INST_LIB)" \
"-I$(PERL_ARCHLIB)" "-I$(PERL_LIB)" -MExtUtils::Install \
-e "pm_to_blib(qw[ \<\<pmfiles.dat ]\,'$(INST_LIB)\auto')"
$(PM_TO_BLIB)
\<\<
@$(TOUCH) $@
2b) but the similar section in ext/B/makefile is
# --- MakeMaker pm_to_blib section:
pm_to_blib: $(TO_INST_PM) @$(PERL) "-I$(INST_ARCHLIB)" "-I$(INST_LIB)" \ "-I$(PERL_ARCHLIB)" "-I$(PERL_LIB)" -MExtUtils::Install \ -e "pm_to_blib(qw[ $(mktmp\,pmfiles.dat $(PM_TO_BLIB:s\,\\,\\\,)\n) ]\,'$(INST_LIB)\auto')" @$(TOUCH) $@
3) use 2b) pm_to_blib section and repeat dmake output stops at 86 lines with:

4) The makefile shows "rem" in configuration at
RANLIB = rem NOOP = rem # NOOP => q[rem] # RANLIB => q[rem]
