ActivePerl, DBI, DBD-MySQL, etc.: Ready for Intel?

[Greg the dogsitter]

Anyone had experience with open-source geek tools on the Intel Macs? I spent some time this evening trying to install ActivePerl, along with the DBI / DBD-MySQL modules. Running my Perl script, which works fine on my G4 PB, resulted in some funky "wrong architecture" failures, though I thought building everything from binaries whenever possible would eliminate such problems.

Has anyone experienced difficulties when trying to install your favorite open-source tools on the Intel Macs?

Thanks much!

I only use php/mysql, and I've had no issues running either on my intel imac. Course, I think they're both supported officially by their respective camps, so I wouldn't expect any issues.

sorry I can't be of help! good luck!

I spent most of yesterday getting the newest Apache2, PHP, SQL and Python (and mod_python) working on my Intel mac. Quite a PITA, but everything seems to be working fine now. Google is your friend.

Perl is native on Intel.
Perhaps your modules are not, or need to be re-compiled.
