It won't go away at a stroke. You are installing a huge Perl library with external dependencies, and there are many places for it to go wrong. > Here is the results of the "perl Makefile.PL" in cpan > > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.cpan/build/Tk-804.028-r9jDlm# perl Makefile.PL > /usr/bin/perl is installed in /usr/lib/perl/5.8 okay > PPM for perl5.008008 > Test Compiling config/perlrx.c > Test Compiling config/pmop.c > Test Compiling config/pregcomp2.c > Test Compiling config/signedchar.c > Test Compiling config/Ksprintf.c > Test Compiling config/tod.c > Test Compiling -DTIMEOFDAY_TZ config/tod.c > TZ gettimeofday() > Using -L/usr/lib to find /usr/lib/libX11.so.6.2.0 > Cannot find X include files via /usr/include > Cannot find X include files anywhere at ./myConfig line 369. > Compilation failed in require at Makefile.PL line 37. > BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 39. > > Any ideas? > > Thanks! > Rick > > p.s., I am only going to reply to the list at this point so that other can > see too... That's cool. We have some better diagnostics at least. The problem now is Using -L/usr/lib to find /usr/lib/libX11.so.6.2.0 Cannot find X include files via /usr/include It's looking for the Debian X11 library and failing to find it in /usr/lib Can you fix that? I can't really help you in any depth with Debian. For now, take a look in /usr/lib and see if there are any libX11 files at all. You may need to install a component or possibly you have a previous corrupt installation.
