i don't know if pugs links something against existing perl 5 but note that
perl5 was rebuilt with ithreads support which change it's directory names to
'thread-multi'.

bbkr@bbkr # perl -e 'print "@INC"'
/etc/perl /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi
/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl
/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi
/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl
/usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8
/usr/local/lib/site_perl .

Comment 4 bbkr 2007-07-07 00:43:20 UTC

fixed, it was threads-related.

default gentoo stage3 is built without USE="ithreads". so if you want to have threaded PERL after adding this flag you have to:

recompile dev-lang/perl
recompile sys-devel/libperl (this was causing the bug)
recompile PERL modules with: perl -MCPAN -e 'CPAN::Shell->install(CPAN::Shell->r)'  or using emerge if you installed PERL modules from gentoo ebuilds

IMO there should be check performed in pugs ebuild: if perl is built with 'ithreads' flag then libperl must be built the same way.
