Hello list!
I am starting to dig deeper into Perl, after having successfully written my first working script :-)
I am trying to install modules on my Mac OS X 10.3 Server machine, but I usually end up getting errors like this for the GD package (1) or this for the Bundle::LWP (2). I did install gdlib2 via fink and libwww as well, but I keep getting the errors nevertheless. I tried installing as an admin user, root, even through webmin, but I always ended up unsuccessful. There are even more modules I cannot install, like DBD::Pg, Bundle::DBI worked fine though (via webmin). Bundle::CPAN did install partly with an error (3). I am using OS X' pre-installed Perl 5.8.1-RC3
Do I need to install certain things first? Is that my or my machines fault? Any help is greatly appreciated!
