Can you tell where it is being built without socket support? You seemed to have that commented out already in hints/haiku.sh.

Replying to andreasf:

hints/haiku.sh.
Sorry, I copied the hints script for BeOS and uncommented/changed the stuff that didn't apply. Still, there was no socket support, so I assumed something has to be done to enable it, and I didn't look into it, since it wasn't really important at that point. My guess would be that one has to add -lnetwork somewhere, so that the Configure tests will find the socket functions, but to be sure just run Configure and check the log.

Perl problems still seem to be with us.
cpan itselfs appears to fall back to downloading with curl.
install LWP still fails with various Can't locate XXX.pm messages during the tests, and so does install Net::SMTP::SSL.
git send-email fails to work:
Unable to initialize SMTP properly. Is there something wrong with your config? at /boot/common/libexec/git-core/git-send-email line 967
Apparently the Net::SMTP constructor fails.

This seems to be fixed with the perl version we have currently.
One of perl's tests produces the same error. I haven't looked into that, since our current perl version is built without sockets support (as were the perl builds for BeOS), so I figured that would be the reason. I'll probably come back to that, after I'm through with the tool chain. There shouldn't be any reason for perl socket support not to work under Haiku.
