Bug 330353 – net-analyzer/net-snmp-5.4.2.1-r4 fails to build on hppa with USE=perl

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Guy Martin (RETIRED) 2010-07-29 13:05:04 UTC]

This applies to net-snmp-5.4.3 as well.

Error message :

checking for Perl cc... configure: error: Could not determine the compiler that was used to build /usr/bin/perl. Either set the environment variable PERLPROG to a different perl binary or use --without-perl-modules to build without Perl.

The problems comes from the fact that perl -V:cc returns this :
cc='hppa2.0-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc';

The regex doesn't match the . in hppa2.0.

The attached patch solves the issue.
