followed this sequence perl Makefile.PL seemed to work make started fine but got these errors: cd pTk && make DEFINE="" make[1]: Entering directory `/root/DOWNLOADS/tkperl/Tk800.024/pTk' /usr/bin/perl mkVFunc -t x tk.h /usr/bin/perl mkVFunc -t x tkInt.h /usr/bin/perl mkVFunc -t x tix.h /usr/bin/perl mkVFunc -t x tixInt.h /usr/bin/perl mkVFunc -m x tix.h /usr/bin/perl mkVFunc -m x tixImgXpm.h /usr/bin/perl mkVFunc -t x tixImgXpm.h /usr/bin/perl mkVFunc -m x tixInt.h /usr/bin/perl mkVFunc -m x tk.h /usr/bin/perl mkVFunc -m x tkInt.h gcc -c -I.. -I/usr/X11R6/include -I. -Ibitmaps -I/usr/X11R6/include -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -fno-strict-aliasing -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I/usr/include/gdbm -O2 -march=i386 -mcpu=i686 -DVERSION=\"800.024\" -DXS_VERSION=\"800.024\" -fPIC "-I/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/CORE" -Wall -Wno-implicit-int -Wno-comment -Wno-unused -D__USE_FIXED_PROTOTYPES__ Xlib_f.c In file included from Xlib_f.c:4: Xlib.h:4: parse error before '*' token Xlib.h:5: parse error before '*' token Xlib.h:6: parse error before '*' token Xlib.h:7: parse error before '*' token Xlib.h:8: parse error before '*' token Xlib.h:9: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.h:10: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.h:11: parse error before "XInternAtom" Xlib.h:12: parse error before "XCreateColormap" Xlib.h:13: parse error before "XCreatePixmapCursor" Xlib.h:14: parse error before "XCreateGlyphCursor" Xlib.h:15: parse error before "XLoadFont" Xlib.h:16: parse error before "XCreateGC" Xlib.h:17: parse error before "XGContextFromGC" Xlib.h:18: parse error before "XCreateBitmapFromData" Xlib.h:19: parse error before "XCreateWindow" Xlib.h:20: parse error before '*' token Xlib.h:21: parse error before '*' token Xlib.h:22: parse error before "XKeycodeToKeysym" Xlib.h:23: parse error before "XStringToKeysym" Xlib.h:24: parse error before "XVisualIDFromVisual" Xlib.h:25: parse error before "XRootWindow" Xlib.h:26: parse error before '*' token Xlib.h:27: parse error before "XDefaultColormap" Xlib.h:28: parse error before "XSetErrorHandler" Xlib.h:29: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.h:30: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.h:31: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.h:32: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.h:33: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.h:34: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" .... etc In file included from Xlib_f.h:7, from Xlib_f.c:5: Xlib.t:7: parse error before "XClassHint" Xlib.t:7: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union Xlib.t:12: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:17: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:23: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:28: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:32: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:36: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:40: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:45: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:45: parse error before '*' token Xlib.t:45: `_ANSI_ARGS_' declared as function returning a function Xlib.t:51: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:56: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:61: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:66: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" Xlib.t:71: parse error before "_ANSI_ARGS_" ....etc Xlib.t:652: warning: (near initialization for `XlibVtable') Xlib_f.c:13: warning: data definition has no type or storage class Xlib_f.c:14: parse error before '*' token Xlib_f.c:14: warning: data definition has no type or storage class Xlib_f.c:15: parse error before '*' token Xlib_f.c:15: warning: return type defaults to `int' make[1]: *** [Xlib_f.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/DOWNLOADS/tkperl/Tk800.024/pTk' make: *** [pTk/libpTk.a] Error 2 (elipses added by me) anyone?
