wml @2.0.11 Fails to run after recent perl updates

[hahn.seb@…]

just calling wml gives this error:

Can't load '/opt/local/lib/wml/perl/lib/darwin-2level/auto/IO/IO.bundle' for module IO: dlopen(/opt/local/lib/wml/perl/lib/darwin-2level/auto/IO/IO.bundle, 1): Symbol not found: _PL_stack_sp

I believe this is related to recent perl updates, because wml worked before and wml itself wasn't updated afaict. I'm on Snow Leopard.

I added a Portfile and two patches (one of them should replace the currently existing patch-wml_backend-p3_eperl-configure patch) that make wml work again in my local testing. The patch changes wml's usage of File::PathConvert into the new, non-deprecated way. Also two modules appear as new dependency.

Thanks for consideration of inclusion.

Please attach a universal diff of the portfile so we can easily see what changes you made.

[hahn.seb@…]

Ah yes, of course. Attaching two patches for the changed files.

I tried this and get the following error:

Indeed only libperl.a exists there on my computer.

wml requires that perl is installed with the +shared variant

I think this is fixed by r83533. Feel free to re-open if the problem persists.
