Cross compilation

[nivelus]

Description I am trying to cross compile perl 5.36. I made config.sh, and running make perl in Cross directory gives me this weird error:

"../../miniperl" "-I../../lib" "-I../../lib" scripts/pod2man.PL scripts/pod2man
Can't undef active subroutine at /usr/lib/perl/5.36.0/Config_heavy.pl line 1527.
Compilation failed in require at ../../lib/Config.pm line 80.

Any ideas what is wrong? Thanks in advance.

Can you tell us what platform/OS you were compiling on and what platform/OS you were attempting to compile to?

Please attach the output of perl -V for the perl you were using when attempting the cross-compilation. Also please supply the arguments to ./Configure you used when attempting to build perl on the targeted platform.

Are you using perl-cross? Perl's own support for cross-compilation is sadly fairly limited.
