This build requires a C compiler by default - A slower, pure Perl version that does not require compilation of XS code can be used instead, by invoking this as perl Makefile.PL -noxs ====================================================================== W A R N I N G - Please do read below if you have legacy code ====================================================================== Versions 3.21 and above of NetAddr::IP, include hooks for the Storable class that are incompatible with the old (automatic) method of storing data. To regain backwards compatibility, the module must be use()d as use NetAddr::IP ':old_storable'; Which will disable the new hooks and revert back to the old ways. If you do not use Storable along NetAddr::IP or just don't know what this all means, most likely you're safe to go along. Versions before 3.25 recognized by default IP addresses as returned by inet_aton. This is no longer the default. To enable this behaviour again, the module must be use()d as use NetAddr::IP ':aton'; Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Testing if you have a C compiler and the needed header files....
