OS X - Development and Darwin Discussion and questions about development for Mac OS X.

Looks like Lion hosed a bunch of non-Apple software.

So far Perl-Tk refuses to compile. Perl debug refuses to find any database whatsoever. C++ is giving some really wacky errors, which looks like it is confusing libraries. Eclipse can't find add on modules for Python and Perl. Mysql goes to La-La land on a multiple join (may be my fault - it's a fairly old load). Parallels won't load Tools in a Linux session. And so on.

I recommend that if you are a production coder working outside of XCode that you might want to wait on upgrading for a while. I am sticking to Snow Leopard for the time being on my coding machine.

There's always potential for this sort of thing to happen when a major OS upgrade is released...and even more potential when someone is an early adopter. It's always a good idea to check one of these sort of lists before upgrading the OS:

App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps

The apps. you're working with are on the "rarer" side...and aren't on the list...so probably the best idea is check with the apps. developers before upgrading the OS. Sounds like you found the best solution for you...sticking with Snow Leopard for the immediate future.
