Problems with perlcc

2001-01-03 Thread bubigary

I´ve upgraded from Linux Red Hat 6.2 to Linux Red Hat 7, and also upgraded from perl 
5.00503 to perl 5.6.0. and now my perlcc doesn´t work anymore. It says it can´t find 
the "boot_Dynaloader" and the "xs_init". Does anyone have a solution? 

Thanks,
