I am running RedHAT Linux 8.0 with the BlueCurve Gnome Desktop (default RH 8.0). I am having trouble installing some perl modules. My installation is the default so I am probably not the only one using RH 8.0 with this sorta problem.
Tk, and Tk::JPEG. I tried both by using cpan and by downloading the source and trying to build it WHILE RUNNING GNOME and X WINDOWS. I realize not running X can cause errors when trying to install these. A truncated part of my error messages when I try to "make" Tk is below: XrmOption.c:761: request for member `V_Tk_GetOption' in something not a structure or union XrmOption.c:762: request for member `V_TkOptionClassChanged' in something not a structure or union XrmOption.c:763: request for member `V_TkOptionDeadWindow' in something not a structure or union make[1]: *** [XrmOption.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/.cpan/build/Tk800.024/pTk' make: *** [pTk/libpTk.a] Error 2 [root@moses Tk800.024]# I get the same sort of thing when I try to install it using CPAN. perl -MCPAN -e shell make NI-S/Tk-800.024.tar.gz This is also frustrating because I want to use a program called boxconf but when I try to run it I get the following errors [root@moses Tk800.024]# cd /usr/local/vocp/bin [root@moses bin]# ls boxconf.pl cryptpass.pl pvftomp3 README vocphax.pl callcenter.pl debug pvftoogg toggleEmail2Vm.pl vocplocal.pl cnd-logger.pl email2vm.pl pwcheck txttopvf wav2rmd.pl convert_boxconf.pl foo.txt pwcheck.c txttopvf2 xvocp.pl convert_fax.sh messages.pl pwcheck.pl view_fax.sh [root@moses bin]# ./boxconf.pl Can't locate Tk/Event.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl) at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/Tk.pm line 13.
