SA 3.0 generates garbled Makefile

[Tom Combs]

Folks,

  I'm attempting to upgrade from SA 2.64 to SA 3.0 on a box running
  RHEL 3.0. When trying to run via either CPAN or from the tarfile
  using "perl Makefile.PL", I get a botched make file and can't do
  the install. It also warns about not being able to find pod2man
  even though this is in /usr/bin/pod2man.

  Here is an extract of the Makefile where is starts going haywire:


INSTALLSITELIB = /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0'    <-- No leading '
installsiteman1='/usr/share/man/man1'
installsiteman3='/usr/share/man/man3'
installsitescript='/usr/bin'
installstyle='lib/perl5'  <-- ???
installusrbinperl='define'
installvendorarch='/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi'
installvendorbin='/usr/bin'
installvendorhtml1=''
installvendorhtml3=''
installvendorlib='/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.'
INSTALLVENDORLIB = ib/perl5'  <-- ???
installusrbinperl='def        <-- No trailing '
INSTALLARCHLIB = /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi
INSTALLSITEARCH = /usr/lib/pe  <-- going down hill
INSTALLVENDORARCH = /usr/
INSTALLBIN = /usr/bin'
installhtml1dir=''
installhtml3dir=''
installman1
INSTALLSITEBIN = /usr
INSTALLVENDORBIN = /usr/bin'


  I'm  just doing a vanilla install and had no problem with the earlier
  version of SA. I could try to just fix the make file but if 3.0 can't
  even do the make, I'm not very comfortable running it. Has anyone else
  had this problem?

  Thanks,  Tom Combs
