Aparently not, I still think Make::Maker is unable to find Perl Header files. I tried this: $ export PERL5LIB=/usr/opt/perl5.old/lib/site_perl/:/usr/opt/perl5.old/lib/5.6.0/:$PE RL5LIB $ bash bash-2.05b$ echo $PERL5LIB /usr/opt/perl5.old/lib/site_perl/:/usr/opt/perl5.old/lib/5.6.0/:/usr/opt/per l5.old/lib bash-2.05b$ /usr/opt/perl5.old/bin/perl Makefile.PL Error: Unable to locate installed Perl libraries or Perl source code. It is recommended that you install perl in a standard location before building extensions. Some precompiled versions of perl do not contain these header files, so you cannot build extensions. In such a case, please build and install your perl from a fresh perl distribution. It usually solves this kind of problem. (You get this message, because MakeMaker could not find "/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.6.0/aix/CORE/perl.h") > > Jenda > ===== [EMAIL PROTECTED] === http://Jenda.Krynicky.cz ===== > When it comes to wine, women and song, wizards are allowed > to get drunk and croon as much as they like. > -- Terry Pratchett in Sourcery > > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response> > > > I think I am getting closer to the root problem. In Config.pm of my old Perl there is following line archlibexp='/usr/opt/perl5/lib/5.6.0/aix' I do not have permission to modifie this file, and I have tried a few technics as described in http://www.script-info.net/perl/aperl/lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.php, with no luck. How Can I change this to point to '/usr/opt/perl5.old/lib/5.6.0/aix' ?? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
