Dear, I am trying to install DBI on my mandriva computer but this will not work. I first get the following message:
*** Your LANG environment variable is set to 'en_US.UTF-8' *** This is known to cause problems for some perl installations. *** If you get test failures, please try again with LANG unset. *** Please also email dbi-dev@perl.org and include the output of 'perl -V' But even with the LANG variable unset, the installation fails. The output of 'perl -V' is: perl -V Summary of my perl5 (revision 5 version 8 subversion 8) configuration: Platform: osname=linux, osvers=2.6.12-31mdksmp, archname=i386-linux uname='linux mercury.mandriva.com 2.6.12-31mdksmp #1 smp fri mar 2 08:52:38 mst 2007 i686 intel(r) pentium(r) 4 cpu 3.00ghz gnulinux ' config_args='-des -Dinc_version_list=5.8.7 5.8.7/i386-linux 5.8.6 5.8.6/i386-linux 5.8.5 5.8.4 5.8.3 5.8.2 5.8.1 5.8.0 5.6.1 5.6.0 -Darchname=i386-linux -Dcc=gcc -Doptimize=-O2 -pipe -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -fexceptions -fomit-frame-pointer -march=i586 -mtune=generic -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -Dprefix=/usr -Dvendorprefix=/usr -Dsiteprefix=/usr -Dsitebin=/usr/local/bin -Dsiteman1dir=/usr/local/share/man/man1 -Dsiteman3dir=/usr/local/share/man/man3 -Dman3ext=3pm -Dcf_by=Mandriva -Dmyhostname=localhost [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Dd_dosuid -Ud_csh -Duseshrplib' hint=recommended, useposix=true, d_sigaction=define usethreads=undef use5005threads=undef useithreads=undef usemultiplicity=undef useperlio=define d_sfio=undef uselargefiles=define usesocks=undef use64bitint=undef use64bitall=undef uselongdouble=undef usemymalloc=n, bincompat5005=undef Compiler: cc='gcc', ccflags ='-fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -Wdeclaration-after-statement -I/usr/local/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I/usr/include/gdbm', optimize='-O2 -pipe -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -fexceptions -fomit-frame-pointer -march=i586 -mtune=generic -fasynchronous-unwind-tables', cppflags='-fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -Wdeclaration-after-statement -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include/gdbm' ccversion='', gccversion='4.2.2 20070909 (prerelease) (4.2.2-0.RC.1mdv2008.0)', gccosandvers='' intsize=4, longsize=4, ptrsize=4, doublesize=8, byteorder=1234 d_longlong=define, longlongsize=8, d_longdbl=define, longdblsize=12 ivtype='long', ivsize=4, nvtype='double', nvsize=8, Off_t='off_t', lseeksize=8 alignbytes=4, prototype=define Linker and Libraries: ld='gcc', ldflags =' -L/usr/local/lib' libpth=/usr/local/lib /lib /usr/lib libs=-lnsl -lndbm -lgdbm -ldl -lm -lcrypt -lutil -lc perllibs=-lnsl -ldl -lm -lcrypt -lutil -lc libc=/lib/libc-2.6.1.so, so=so, useshrplib=true, libperl=libperl.so gnulibc_version='2.6.1' Dynamic Linking: dlsrc=dl_dlopen.xs, dlext=so, d_dlsymun=undef, ccdlflags='-Wl,-E -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i386-linux/CORE' cccdlflags='-fPIC', lddlflags='-shared -L/usr/local/lib' Characteristics of this binary (from libperl): Compile-time options: PERL_MALLOC_WRAP USE_LARGE_FILES USE_PERLIO Locally applied patches: Mandriva Linux patches Built under linux Compiled at Nov 5 2007 17:09:53 @INC: /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl .
