58How to report a problem with IO-Compress-Lzma.
59
60To help me help you, I need all of the following information:
61
62 1. The Versions of everything relevant.
63 This includes:
64
65 a. The *complete* output from running this
66
67 perl -V
68
69 Do not edit the output in any way.
70 Note, I want you to run "perl -V" and NOT "perl -v".
71
72 If your perl does not understand the "-V" option it is too
73 old. This module needs Perl version 5.004 or better.
74
75 b. The version of IO-Compress-Lzma you have.
76 If you have successfully installed IO-Compress-Lzma, this one-liner
77 will tell you:
78
79 perl -MIO::Compress::Lzma -e 'print qq[ver $IO::Compress::Lzma::VERSION\n]'
80
81 If you are running windows use this
82
83 perl -MIO::Compress::Lzma -e "print qq[ver $IO::Compress::Lzma::VERSION\n]"
84
85 If you haven't installed IO-Compress-Lzma then search IO::Compress::Lzma.pm
86 for a line like this:
87
88 $VERSION = "2.101" ;
89
90 2. If you are having problems building IO-Compress-Lzma, send me a
91 complete log of what happened. Start by unpacking the IO-Compress-Lzma
92 module into a fresh directory and keep a log of all the steps
93
94 [edit config.in, if necessary]
95 perl Makefile.PL
96 make
97 make test TEST_VERBOSE=1
