Hi, I tried to install Device::serialport i downloaded from cpan page. i extracted it and startet perl Makefile.PL
This ended with some error which is logged in config.log. Here is the part of it, which shows the error configure:2084: gcc conftest.c >&5 gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `as': No such file or directory configure:2087: $? = 1 configure:2125: result: configure: failed program was: | /* confdefs.h. */ | #define PACKAGE_NAME "Device::SerialPort" | #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "device--serialport" | #define PACKAGE_VERSION "1.04" | #define PACKAGE_STRING "Device::SerialPort 1.04" | #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" | /* end confdefs.h. */ | | int | main () | { | | ; | return 0; | } configure:2132: error: C compiler cannot create executables Thanks for help again!
