Description Torsten Veller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-08-30 11:02:22 UTC 
A "*-g*" in CFLAGS (and no DEBUGGING setting) results in a perl built with -DDEBUGGING in CFLAGS ("internal debugging code","bigger and will run more slowly").

This is fixed in perl-5.12.1-r2. The additional debugging code will only be added if USE=debug is set.

Problem:
========
Modules built for    perl-5.12.1-r1 with -g in CFLAGS and USE=-debug
will *not* work with perl-5.12.1-r2 with -g in CFLAGS and USE=-debug 


Solution:
=========
You have to uninstall perl-core/File-Spec (if installed) run perl-cleaner:

  emerge -C perl-core/File-Spec && emerge -1 perl-core/File-Spec
  perl-cleaner --modules ; perl-cleaner --force --libperl

[ebuild   R   ] dev-lang/perl-5.12.1-r2  USE="berkdb gdbm ithreads -build -debug -doc" 0 kB

#  perl -V:ccflags | grep DEBUGGING
# 

seems to be working well here.

Should be:
    perl-cleaner --allmodules ; perl-cleaner --force --libperl
