Could you please send the information requested in the BUGS file of the PDL distribution for help with your problem.
To get more diagnostics, you can run the tests by hand from the PDL build directory: perl -Mblib t/flexraw.t This can give more specific messages that may help to resolve the build issues. For the t/dumper.t tests, just install uudecode and uuencode via your linux package manager and you should be good there. The t/plplot.t failure appears to be a false failure resulting from testing from equality with floating point numbers. You can safely ignore it as you determined. Thanks for reporting the problem.
