Thanks for the hint. I tried moving the math.h header file but then I
received this error:
---> Building perl5.8
Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/
local/var/macports/build/
_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync
.macports.org_release_ports_lang_perl5.8/work/perl-5.8.9" && make all
" returned error 2
Command output: make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/local/include/
math.h', needed by `miniperlmain.o'. Stop.
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
It seems that the math.h file is needed. I just know some of the
basics of UNIX but isn't the usr/local/ directory for user installed
stuff. Why would the perl installer be looking in there for
anything? Thank in advance for any more help.

Hi All!
I'm having trouble installing mplayer. The specific problem seems
to be
with the perl5.8 port. I get the following error when it tries to
install:

It appears that you have something in /usr/local that is getting in
the way;
you'll need to move or remove such items (at least this one header
file),
though there may be others. The usual advice given is to simply move
/usr/local aside (eg, to /usr/local-move) then install again.

I'm not sure what math.h has to do with perl. It's a GPAC file. I
think
it was installed with mp4box. Was something overwritten? I tried
to do
some googling but didn't have any luck. Part of the problem is
that I'm
not a UNIX pro so what I did find was greek to me. Any dummying
down that
you can manage in your response would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
for any hints.
