I see. The perl build system is a piece of garbage, IMO. I would suggest using the newer -libc patch that's in svn. http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/patches/lfs/development/perl-5.8.8-libc-2.patch It forces the build to use the headers in /tools/include. This was only found later after 6.1.1 was completed. I don't know if it will solve your issues with gettext, but it would make the perl build more robust. Also, since you know you just need the File extension, you could just change the perl configure line to ./configure.gnu --prefix=/tools -Dstatic_ext='Data/Dumper Fcntl IO POSIX File/Glob' I've never tested that, but it seems like it would work. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
