how about looking within your distribution? For Debian, the package names are libarchive-zip-perl and libcompress-zlib-perl. I don't know about yum-OS (what was it again?). > with > > Failed 8/10 test scripts, 20.00% okay. 3/3 subtests failed, 0.00% okay. > make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 255 > /usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK Maybe your compiler doesn't generate 64-bit-code to match the Perl executable? You *did* compile on the target system, didn't you? > I assume this must be due to the newer version of perl? I doubt it. In fact, I can build both modules (fetched from CPAN) and successfully run the tests on Debian Etch (Perl 5.8.8) (32-bit installation though). Are you sure you've got all the dependencies installed? You won't run into such problems if you can just install a package ...
