What should I do if I get an error when compiling PARSEC 2.1 under Ubuntu?

PARSEC is a test assembly in a Linux system that contains multiple applications. Compiling PARSEC 2.1 in the Ubuntu system has caused an error that caused the compilation to fail. What should I do at this time?

Error message:

installing man1 /smime.1

smime.pod around line 272: Expected text after = item, not a number
< Smime.pod around line 276: Expected text after =item, not a number

smime.pod around line 280: Expected text after =item, not a number

smime.pod around Line 285: Expected text after =item, not a number

smime.pod around line 289: Expected text after =item, not a number

POD document had syntax errors at /usr/bin /pod2man line 71.

make: *** [install_docs] Error 255

Cause Analysis: This is due to the fact that OpenSSL 1.0.1e is not compatible with perl5.18.

Solution:

1. Someone verified that perl 5.16 can be installed, and the low version of perl 5.16 can solve the problem.

2. Delete the pod2man file:

sudo rm /usr/bin/pod2man

The above is the analysis and solution for the error of compiling PARSEC 2.1 under Ubuntu system, of course. The above method is a targeted solution based on the error information in the text, and does not necessarily apply to all compilation errors.
