Fails to build on my system as well.

[Comment 2 James 2003-09-09 11:15:01 UTC]

Fix found: -
emerge -DC ExtUtils-MakeMaker
I.E. Remove ExtUtils-MakeMaker from your system.

Thus, I conclude that perl-tk conflicts with "ExtUtils-MakeMaker"
or
dev-perl/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.15
as it is in the current portage.

Please update the perl-tk ebuild file, to recognise the comflict.

[Comment 3 Ajay Sharma 2003-10-01 20:26:51 UTC]

I don't even have ExtUtils-MakeMaker installed and I'm getting the same compile
error....

[Comment 4 Ajay Sharma 2003-10-01 21:29:57 UTC]

the problem is with perl 5.8.1.  I downgraded to perl 5.8.0-r12 and it compiled
fine.

[Comment 5 Stephan Weber 2003-10-02 12:27:55 UTC]

There is a newer version of perl-tk: Tk-800.025
I patched up the ebuild for that version and this one builds
fine for me.

[Comment 6 Robert Coie (RETIRED) 2003-10-02 14:56:05 UTC]

800.025 committed to cvs.
