Trying to build globus 5.0.4 on RHEL 6 (with RH perl RPMs) fails with: [user@blah]$ make gridftp /usr/local/globus-5.0.4/sbin/gpt-build -srcdir=source-trees-thr/core/source gcc64dbgpthr Subroutine Compress::Zlib::gzFile::gzseek redefined at /usr/local/share/perl5/Compress/Zlib.pm line 220. Undefined subroutine &Compress::Zlib::gzdopen_ called at /usr/local/globus-5.0.4/lib/perl/Archive/Tar.pm line 250. make: *** [globus_core-thr-compile] Error 25
(Same results when building against Active Perl.) The 5.0.3 version builds fine. I tried to resolve the issue, but could not isolate what is really going on. The required Zlib perl modules are installed, though it does not seem to find this correctly. Google has not been too helpful in leading me to the real cause. I also see that line in usr/local/globus-5.0.4/lib/perl/Archive/Tar.pm line has a prior subroutine call commented out, but trying to revert to it just lead to other issues. Though 5.0.3 will certainly work fine for me for now, it would be nice to to know why this is not compiling cleanly. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it. (This seems a bit of a show stopper on RHEL 6) Thank you, Pete
