yea, I had alot of misery with this module, the last cpl of updates gave me plenty of heartburn, lol. @ swiftgeek, thank you for stepping up and taking this module. Give it all the love and nurturing it deserves.

Patches welcome as i'm not a perl dev ;)

Should be fixed now (no more random x11 windows with teapots and cubes), but it still needs to be compiled under X11, because of retarded "Makefile.pl"

OK, bunder, I've uploaded the untouched file... let me know if there's any problems all...

I tried your updated and untouched PKGBUILD and it looks good except an error at check stage (I've already opened a bug for this error, see http://sourceforge.net/p/pogl/bugs/8/). I have neither junk characters in Makefile nor errors at build stage. My environment: Arch linux x86_64, perl 5.18.1-1, make 4.0-1, freeglut 2.8.1-1, mesa-libgl 9.2.2-1.

Seems there might be an upstream bug with the Makefile.PL file, once the Makefile is generated it fails: ([J:0]jjones@jjones-lappy[/tmp/perl-opengl]% makepkg [11/13/13][19:27:39]) ==> Making package: perl-opengl 0.6703-1 (Wed Nov 13 19:27:43 MST 2013) ==> Checking runtime dependencies... ==> Checking buildtime dependencies... ==> Retrieving sources... -> Downloading OpenGL-0.6703.tar.gz... % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0 100 655k 100 655k 0 0 670k 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 5593k ==> Validating source files with md5sums...

It seems that there are junk characters added to the first line and last line of the Makefile. I've added some sed hacks to remove these spews but then the make fails with other problems: ([J:1]jjones@perlgeeks4u[/tmp/perl-opengl]% makepkg [11/13/13][19:34:30]) ==> Making package: perl-opengl 0.6703-1 (Wed Nov 13 19:34:32 MST 2013) ==> Checking runtime dependencies... ==> Checking buildtime dependencies... ==> Retrieving sources... -> Downloading OpenGL-0.6703.tar.gz... % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0 100 655k 100 655k 0 0 306k 0 0:00:02 0:00:02 --:--:-- 311k ==> Validating source files with md5sums...

Anyone want to take a crack at it?

I wonder if there's an ancillary dependency that hasn't been rebuilt for Perl 5.18. I've had a number of my perl modules fail that way. Or sometimes, the author has yet to fix the test to be 5.18 compliant, which could also be the case. Lastly, this module during make test will attempt to test the graphical aspects and if you're on a headless server, or logged in as root on a terminal and the test can't connect to the X session, make test barfs in your lap like a 5 month old infant with influenza. For a time, I kept make test commented out, but the tests are fairly important and it's just wrong and against the Perl way to force skip the tests. Let me know if any of the above assisted you with regard to your problem.
