I would really like to have Perl too (mainly because a lot of TeX commands use it). The technical reason is: it's really difficult to cross-compile. Perl uses its own...

Okay, I've got good news and I've got bad news. The good news: perl is sort of working right now (there's still a bit to polish before release, but I...

I think we will be able to install all pure Perl modules from CPAN (that's the goal), but any module that requires compiling will be impossible. That's the same deal...

`jsi` is the work of @personalizedrefrigerator, see #149, #207, #211, #212. I did install `perldoc` (the binary), but I missed quite a lot of `.pod` files (including `perldoc.pod`). That will...

A new TestFlight version is available (same place): https://testflight.apple.com/join/WUdKe3f4 This time, `cpan` works (at least it works on all the packages I have tried). `fork` does not work with unmodified...

There are two possibilities for `cpan` to fail: - because the package contains dynamic libraries. Without a compiler, we can't do much here. - because `cpan` runs too many nested...

The bad news is, it did not fix the issue with CPAN. The good news is, now I think I have fixed it. `CPAN YAML` works, at least. Tests are...

Hi, thanks for signaling this one. I can reproduce it, which is good news, but I have no ideas where it's coming from, which is bad news. I can trace...
