p5-Gtk2 upgrade stalls

Hi everyone,

I'm getting the following error message:
Code: 
chmod 644 blib/arch/auto/Gtk2/Gtk2.bs
Creating stock items POD...
Malformed UTF-8 character (unexpected end of string) in length at tools/podifystockitems.pl line 52.

gmake: *** [build/podindex] Fehler 25

I looked at file that was mentioned at the first error (/usr/ports/x11-toolkits/p5-Gtk2/work/Gtk2-1.241/tools/podifystockitems.pl) but that didn't yield much:
Code: 
	push @data, [ $_, $info->{label} || '', $mask || '' ];

	$widths[0] = length($data[$#data][0])
		if (length($data[$#data][0]) > $widths[0]);
	$widths[1] = length($data[$#data][1])
		if (length($data[$#data][1]) > $widths[1]);
	$widths[2] = length($data[$#data][2])
		if (length($data[$#data][2]) > $widths[2]);
This snippet begins at line 48.

So, where do I need to look?

Cheers,
Frank
 
Hi,
sorry for digging up the old posting, but I'm not making any progress whatsoever. I have switched from perl-5.10 to perl-5.14 and rebuilt all dependencies for p5-Gtk2, to no avail.
Code: 
[ XS build/constants.xs ]
[ CC build/constants.c ]
Running Mkbootstrap for Gtk2 ()
chmod 644 Gtk2.bs
rm -f blib/arch/auto/Gtk2/Gtk2.so
[ LD blib/arch/auto/Gtk2/Gtk2.so ]
chmod 755 blib/arch/auto/Gtk2/Gtk2.so
cp Gtk2.bs blib/arch/auto/Gtk2/Gtk2.bs
chmod 644 blib/arch/auto/Gtk2/Gtk2.bs
Creating stock items POD...
Malformed UTF-8 character (unexpected end of string) in length at tools/podifystockitems.pl line 52.

Interestingly, I get the same error when trying to rebuild the old port (p5-Gtk2-1.223) so the error seems to come from somewhere else.

Any ideas?
 
I don't think it'a a perl problem, it fails on me with both perl5.10 and 5.14. Locale is LANG=de_DE.ISO8859-1
 ever since this system was set up.
 
Try setting the locale(1) to just "C". It's probably safer to keep root's locale at defaults, some of the Makefiles and configure scripts might fail with non-default locale.
