Hi Liston,
Welcome back! Haven't heard from you lately. Thanks for testing the latest build.

I patched the lib/Makefile.in to create the 3.4 directory in the install tree,
so this should work now.

I'll look into putting this patch into Orca.

I just saw this the other day with a fresh install of ActiveState's ActivePerl
Build 811. I didn't try reinstalling Data::Dumper. This is an odd bug, the

What version of Perl are you using? Who built it?

This isn't good. I just tried rebuilding Data::Dumper with ActiveState Perl's
and it passed just fine.

Which interfaces? Can you send the first line of your output orcallator data files?
Thanks,
