Math::GMP and Net::SSH::Perl

[Michael Barto]

I am a novice at this. What am I missing? I downloaded the Math::GMP ran a config, make,  make test and make install.     ./configure     make     make check        <= VERY IMPORTANT!! make install everything worked fine. The library was installed in /usr/local/lib In my load directory, I have a "GMP.pm" file in a development directory where I downloaded this module before I did the make(s)/install. When I try again installed this CPAN module which has this dependency with perl -MCPAN -e 'install Net::SSH::Perl'   I get ----------------------------- Looks good Warning: prerequisite Math::GMP 1.04 not found. Writing Makefile for Net::SSH::Perl ---- Unsatisfied dependencies detected during [D/DB/DBROBINS/Net-SSH-Perl-1.30.tar.gz] -----     Math::GMP Shall I follow them and prepend them to the queue of modules we are processing right now? [yes] .... .... .... .... DIED. FAILED tests 1-19         Failed 19/19 tests, 0.00% okay t/03-packet......Can't locate Math/GMP.pm in @INC .....etc..... ------------------------------------------ Should I move the "GMP.pm" to say /Library/Perl/5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Math so that the computation can see it, use libtool (how does that work?) or use an environmental variable? What is the correct answer to the question after I have compiled the Math::GMP (yes or no)? Since it is there, I think it should be no. But it does not see it. Before I hack it to see it, I would like some advice. By the way Celeste Suliin Burris, you solved my first part of the problem in compiling GMP.pm. But who do we report these errors to fix CPAN without hacking around? -- Michael Barto Software Architect LogiQwest Inc. 16458 Bolsa Chica Street, # 15 Huntington Beach, CA  92649 http://www.logiqwest.com/     [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel:  714 377 3705 Fax: 714 840 3937 Cell: 714 883 1949 'tis a gift to be simple This e-mail may contain LogiQwest proprietary information and should be treated as confidential.
