Git 1.7.3.1 cannot be built on FreeBSD 4 with gcc 2.95

Hello,

I'm hitting the following errors during Git 1.7.3.1 build on FreeBSD 4.
I didn't see this problem when I built 1.7.0.1 so I should be
introduced in the recent versions.
Is there any reports regarding this?

Thank you

This looks like a problem with Perl. What version do you have?

You can check that with cpan - type "m ExtUtils::MakeMaker", and look
at the INST_VERSION line.

Thanks for reply.

I use perl 5.8.9 and ExtUtils::MakeMaker is 6.48.

$ /usr/local/bin/perl -v | grep v5
This is perl, v5.8.9 built for i386-freebsd

What version of Perl does Git require to build?
It seems INSTALL does not mention it.

Thank you

Hi,

Can you try upgrading it and running make again? I think the cpan
commads for it are "r" (show upgrades) and "upgrade".

$ /usr/local/bin/perl -v | grep v5
This is perl, v5.8.9 built for i386-freebsd

What version of Perl does Git require to build?
It seems INSTALL does not mention it.

Ah, Perl is used for git-add--interactive and git-svn.

I upgraded ExtUtils::MakeMaker to 6.56 and ran make again but it
didn't fix the issue.

Try building with NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=1
