The strange part is the Makefile generator in PERL that
depends on some standard module. No idea how to handle the "MakeMaker"
module. Here is the beginning of that piece:
# Term::ReadKey Makefile.PL Version 2.05
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
use Carp;
if( $ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Version < 3.5 ) {
croak("Sorry, but MakeMaker 3.5 or better is needed to build this
package.");
}
#$Verbose = 0;
&WriteMakefile(
NAME => "Term::ReadKey",
DISTNAME => "TermReadKey",
VERSION => "2.05",
PM => { "ReadKey.pm" => '$(INST_LIBDIR)/ReadKey.pm'},
# Uncomment these to allow testing of sgtty under Linux. Not needed
