Dear Perl experts: I am trying to install Algorithm::Combinatorics locally on a UNIX system without root access. The module or at least portions of it are written in C. I have the following cc available:
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man -- infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix -- disable-checking --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable- libunwind-exceptions --enable-java-awt=gtk --host=x86_64-redhat-linux Thread model: posix gcc version 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-9) So "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/mydir" works. "make" works well too. But during "make test" I get the following errors: PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 .../perl/5.8.8/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "- e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/00_load............................ # Failed test 'use Algorithm::Combinatorics;' t/00_load............................NOK 1# in t/00_load.t at line 6. # Tried to use 'Algorithm::Combinatorics'. # Error: Can't load '.../Algorithm-Combinatorics-0.25/blib/arch/ auto/Algorithm/Combinatorics/Combinatorics.so' for module Algorithm::Combinatorics: .../Algorithm-Combinatorics 0.25/blib/arch/ auto/Algorithm/Combinatorics/Combinatorics.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory at .../perl/5.8.8/lib/5.8.8/ i686-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 230. # at (eval 3) line 2 # Compilation failed in require at (eval 3) line 2. # BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at t/00_load.t line 6. # Looks like you failed 1 test of 1. Then I chose the static linking "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/mydir LINKTYPE=static". It worked well and "make" finished normally. Then again "make test" fails giving the following errors: perlmain.c: In function `xs_init': perlmain.c:122: warning: passing arg 4 of `Perl_newXS' discards qualifiers from pointer target type perlmain.c:127: warning: passing arg 4 of `Perl_newXS' discards qualifiers from pointer target type /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `.../perl/5.8.8/ lib/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.a(perl.o)' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output /usr/bin/ld: warning: i386 architecture of input file `.../perl/5.8.8/ lib/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.a(gv.o)' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output .../perl/5.8.8/lib/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.a (perlio.o)(.text+0x4a6c): In function `PerlIOMmap_map': : undefined reference to `__divdi3' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [perl] Error 1 Can anyone please help what could be possibly wrong??
