  • TT (Score:1)

    by sigzero (5768) on 2007.03.20 3:42 (#53885) Journal
    I know as far as TT goes it isn't just your distro but some breakage and fixing in general. Part of the problem is Andy has been away and very very busy but the latest version supposedly compiles and installs on Windows again. TT is a must have for me and I am sure others as well. The other is DBD::Oracle. Do you know if that compiles fine? With PPM it "just works" but I have to have that one as well before attempting anything like Vanilla/Strawberry Perl. Great job to all though!
    • No, I made two release of TT that fixed Win32 and one particular mac issue.

      Then Andy came back, merged my changes, un-disabled the test that was failing, didn't check that it actually worked, and now it's broken on Win32 again.

      I agree that Win32 isn't the ONLY problem with TT, but it's caused by the same problem. Andy isn't personally able to work on TT, but won't/can't/forgets to compensate for his own lack of time.

      There's reason people get co-maintainer and CVS commit rights.
