Description Justin Sheckler 2003-10-03 16:38:14 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.4)
Installed from:    Slackware Packages

All versions of Gideon since alpha5 (alpha6, alpha7 and snapshot) refuse to open Perl projects created with alpha5, nor will they create new Perl projects.  A dialog box comes up with the message "Can't find Perl plugin."  It looks like the kdevelop-perl libraries are installed in $KDEDIR/lib/kde3, but they aren't getting loaded by Gideon.

Perl compilation is disabled by default.

edit laguages/Makefile.am to enable it.
Comment 2 Justin Sheckler 2003-10-03 18:35:28 UTC 
Thank you.  Please consider adding this info. to the README file.
Comment 3 Amilcar do Carmo Lucas 2003-10-03 20:03:50 UTC 
There is no README file. Only README.dox file. Added there. 
There is no maintainer and so perl will probably not even compile. :(

Subject: Re:  Gideon can't find Perl Plugin

What happened?  Was the Perl plugin abandoned?

I added "perl" to the Makefile.am in languages/ but Gideon still can't find 
its Perl plugin.  The Perl code compiled, but Gideon doesn't seem to know 
it's there.  I'll look at the code this weekend and if I find a fix I'll 
contribute it to the developers.

I would hate to see Perl support go away; I'm a full-time Perl programmer and 
I use Gideon a5 on a daily basis.
