When running gimp.1.2.1/configure, I get these errors:
============================== 8< ===================================
...
invoking perl for configuration...
WARNING: unable to use PDL (the perl data language). This means that
normal pixel access is non-functional. Unless you plan to use
Tile/PixelRgn functions together with PDL, this is harmless. The
plug-ins using PDL, however, will NOT WORK and you can NO LONGER
install PDL later. You can get PDL from any CPAN mirror.
checking for PDL support... no
NOTICE: You are using a version of perl older than 5.005. This will
slightly
reduce the features available to the Gimp-Perl extension.
NOTICE: unable to use the Perl-Gtk interface. Many features (like
Gimp::Fu) rely on this extension. You can build without it (and
many scripts will be disabled or run with reduced functionality
only), but it's better to install it (version 0.6123 or higher is
required, you can get it from ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gtk/perl/ or
any CPAN mirror.
============================== 8< ===================================
I get these errors when the perl it invokes tries to execute "use
PDL" and "use Gtk". Those commands result in errors because PDL and Gtk
are installed in my homedir,
/home/mydir/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/IP27-irix which is not in @INC by
default.
However, PDL and Gtk ARE installed, because if I do:
echo 'use PDL; use Gtk'|perl -I/home/mydir/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/IP27-irix
Then perl exits without any error. Alternatively, if I try to just do:
echo 'use PDL; use Gtk'|perl
then I get this error:
================================ 8< =================================
Can't locate PDL.pm in
@INC (@INC contains: /lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/IP27-irix
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.0/IP27-irix /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.0
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/IP27-irix
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at
- line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at - line 1.
================================ 8< =================================
Obviously I need some way to let gimp.1.2.1/configure know to tell
perl to include the directory
/home/mydir/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/IP27-irix.
I've tried using $PERL_MM_OPT, PREFIX=..., LIB=..., combinations
thereof, etc. to no avail.
If you could carbon-copy any response to me at beason@xxxxxxxxxx I
would greatly appreciate it. I have spent four days trying to get gimp to
compile with all the gizmo's and this is holding me back.
Thank you very much in advance!
