I tried to install WWW::Curl like perl -MCPAN -e 'install WWW::Curl'.
During Curl.xs build I get the following errors:
cc -c -I/usr/local/include -DHAS_FPSETMASK -DHAS_FLOATINGPOINT_H -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -fstack-protector-strong -I/usr/local/include -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector -fno-strict-aliasing -DVERSION=\"4.17\" -DXS_VERSION=\"4.17\" -DPIC -fPIC "-I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.24/mach/CORE" Curl.c In file included from Curl.xs:574:
./curlopt-constants.c:19:58: error:

./curlopt-constants.c:136:49: error: use of undeclared identifier
'CURL_STRICTER' if (strEQ(name, "STRICTER")) return CURL_STRICTER;
And a lot of warnings after that.
Is there anything I'm missing?
I tried to build WWW::Curl with perl 5.24.3, on FreeBSD 11.1
There seems to be an open issue in the module repository. It's not closed, but you might want to follow it since there might be a fix in the upcoming releases or in the repo itself. The fix might be
if ($e =~ /(OBSOLETE|^CURL_EXTERN|_LAST\z|_LASTENTRY\z|CURL_DID_MEMORY_FUNC_TYPEDEFS\z)/) {
