I am trying to install Digest::MD5 on a linux box (perl 5.6.1, yes i know i should,....). i have gzip'd and tar'd the package, moved into the directory and tried to 'perl Makefile.PL' and i get the following error message: Testing alignment requiremnets for U32... /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ldb collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Can't compile test program Writing Makefile for Digest::MD5
from what i understand this means that the linker (/usr/bin/ld) program can't find the 'db' lib(?) but neither can i,... i went to gnu.org and could not find anything relevent. ( the reason i came to this conclusion is originally the error read 'cannot find -lgdbm', which i did find at gnu.org and installed,...) I do know about the auto CPAN module and am in the process of installing it but that (CPAN) stated that it wanted LWP, LWP stated that it needed Digest::MD5 , Digest, told me the above. Any insight is very much appreciated thank you. ( i don't always check this list, please 'cc' me if you respond ) -mustard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
