Hi,
did anyone experienced such error?
I am trying to install CGI_Lite for Perl 5.8.2, both manual install and CPAN
shell install failed with following message during perl Makefile.PL:
Can't use string (" ") as a HASH ref while "strict refs"
in use at /usr/local/
lib/perl5/5.8.2/ExtUtils/MM_Unix.pm line 503.
uname -a shows:
FreeBSD amber.aeternal.net 4.9-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE #6: Mon Dec 8
09:24:28 CET 2003 corwin@amber.aeternal.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/AMBER
i386
perl -v shows:
This is perl, v5.8.2 built for i386-freebsd
I am not that skilled in perl to fix that by myself, so any assistance would
be appreciated.

As far as I am researching I found out that this bug has been reported with 5.8 perl about year ago. Bug has never been solved. Here are details: http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=1496 Same happens when I try to use older CGI_Lite ver. 1.7 from CPAN.
