Marpa::R2 on macOS

[jhannah]

FYI, v12 seems to install fine(?) on my old macOS (Ventura 13.6.7):

$ cpanm -v Marpa::R2
Successfully installed Marpa-R2-12.000000 (upgraded from 8.000000)
$ uname -a
Darwin Jays-2017-MacBook-Pro.local 22.6.0 Darwin Kernel Version 22.6.0: Mon Apr 22 20:54:28 PDT 2024; root:xnu-8796.141.3.705.2~1/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64
$ perl -E 'say $^O'

So maybe you don't need this darwin code anymore?

# I can't get Marpa::R2 versions 10 and 12 to build on OS/X or Solaris.
# It's used by Genealogy::Gedcom::Date, so force version 8
eval 'use Marpa::R2';
if($@) {
	if(($^O eq 'solaris') || ($^O eq 'darwin')) {
		push @needfull, 'JKEGL/Marpa-R2-8.000000.tar.gz'
	} else {
		push @needfull, 'Marpa::R2';
	}
}

No idea if it fails on current macOS, I don't have a machine that can run current macOS (Sonoma 14.*).

Good point, mine runs as well. So yes, I'll remove it from here and the gedcom application.

cpan[1]> install Marpa::R2
