Here's the version of that libtool that I have on the system now (and when I compiled 5.0): tom@millhouse:/opt/collectd/sbin$ sudo dpkg -l |grep libtool ii libtool 2.2.6b-2ubuntu1 Generic library support script I don't see an explicit libtool option for the configure script.

I set my IncludeDir value to "/opt/collectd/share/perl/5.10.1" and restarted, so I'm not getting that error any more. Unfortunately, I'm now getting this error: Can't load '/usr/lib/perl/5.10/auto/threads/threads.so' for module threads: /usr/lib/perl/5.10/auto/threads/threads.so: undefined symbol: PL_no_mem at /usr/lib/perl/5.10/XSLoader.pm line 70. at /usr/lib/perl/5.10/threads.pm line 32 Compilation failed in require at /opt/collectd/share/perl/5.10.1/Collectd.pm line 27.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted [2011-07-06 07:15:47] perl: Configuration failed with a fatal error - plugin disabled! I found a few posts that said I should run this before I start collectd: export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libperl.so.5.10.1 However, this didn't seem to help. Am I getting this because of the missing libtool dependency? Also, why do you suppose it's looking for a Perl 5.10 plugin if I'm using 5.10.1? Thanks again for all of your help Sebastian!
