Do you have /tools/lib/perl5/5.24.1/Encode.pm ? If not, where is Encode.pm from your perl install ? I'm thinking this might be another example of what happens when you build other than in /mnt/lfs. ========================================================= I found the problem. When I check up that path to see if I have Encode.pm I found that my perl directory was called per15 instead of perl5. It must have happened as a result of the font in the book which makes it a bit hard to see the difference between l and 1. When I type in such commands in the future I'll try to be more careful to copy them correctly. Thank you very much, Isaac D. Cohen
