Hi all, I'm trying to install perl's Image::EXIF module on FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE. I'm using perl 5.8.2 installed from ports.
I've installed libexif from /usr/ports/graphics/libexif and tried to install Image::EXIF from CPAN. make test fails with # Using Test.pm version 1.24 Can't load 'blib/arch/auto/Image/EXIF/EXIF.so' for module Image::EXIF: blib/arch/auto/Image/EXIF/EXIF.so: Undefined symbol "gpstags" at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/mach/DynaLoader.pm line 229. at test.pl line 10 Compilation failed in require at test.pl line 10. Skipping the test and forcing the install leaves me with a non-working module. Trying to use it, I get : $ perl -e 'use Image::EXIF; print "hello\n";' Can't load '/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/mach/auto/Image/EXIF/EXIF.so' for module Image::EXIF: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/mach/auto/Image/EXIF/EXIF.so: Undefined symbol "gpstags" at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/mach/DynaLoader.pm line 229. at -e line 1 Compilation failed in require at -e line 1 It looks like ld cannot use the EXIF.so file because of an undefined symbol. I can't find any other dependencies listed for this module, and I'm not exactly sure what this LD error message means. Cany anyone advise me on a fix for this ?
