Debian 9.13 perl-5.24-1 compile from source dist/Time-HiRes Warning: No Makefile!
debian-user:
I have a computer with Debian:
$ cat /etc/debian_version ; uname -a
9.13
Linux tinkywinky 4.9.0-13-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.228-1 (2020-07-05)
x86_64 GNU/Linux
I have installed the source code for the 'perl' package:
$ apt-get source perl
<snip>
When I attempt to compile the package per the instructions in INSTALL:
$ cd perl-5.24.1
$ sh Configure -de
<snip>
$ make
<snip>
./miniperl -Ilib make_ext.pl lib/auto/Time/HiRes/HiRes.so MAKE="make"
LIBPERL_A=libperl.a LINKTYPE=dynamic
Makefile.PL: The "xdefine" exists, skipping the configure step.
("/home/dpchrist/src/debian-9/perl-5.24.1/miniperl Makefile.PL
--configure" to force the configure step)

Looking at dist/Time-HiRes, I see 'xdefine'. I do not see 'Makefile':
$ ls -AF1 dist/Time-HiRes/

Comparing the attempted build for Time-HiRes against other successful
module builds, I see this message for Time-HiRes:
Makefile.PL: The "xdefine" exists, skipping the configure step.
The above messages was emitted by the main() subroutine in
dist/Time-HiRes/Makefile.PL.
Changing into the module directory and running the suggested command
(with an appropriate -I option):
$ cd dist/Time-HiRes
$ /home/dpchrist/src/debian-9/perl-5.24.1/miniperl -I../../lib
Makefile.PL --configure

You have interval timers (both setitimer and getitimer).

You can mix subsecond sleeps with signals, if you want to.
(It's still not portable, though.)

You do not seem to have stat subsecond timestamps.
Can't load module B, dynamic loading not available in this perl.
(You may need to build a new perl executable which either supports
dynamic loading or has the B module statically linked into it.)
