Hello, What is the *best* method to load perl modules? I am trying to load the GD module from CPAN with; perl -MCPAN -e shell cpan> install GD ..., but I get a fist full of errors (below), <snip> GD.c:3554: `font' undeclared (first use in this function) GD.c:3554: called object is not a function GD.c: In function `XS_GD__Font_offset': GD.c:3575: parse error before "font" GD.c:3581: `font' undeclared (first use in this function) GD.c:3581: called object is not a function GD.c: In function `XS_GD__Font_width': GD.c:3602: parse error before "font" GD.c:3608: `font' undeclared (first use in this function) GD.c:3608: called object is not a function GD.c: In function `XS_GD__Font_height': GD.c:3629: parse error before "font" GD.c:3635: `font' undeclared (first use in this function) GD.c:3635: called object is not a function {standard input}: Assembler messages: {standard input}:377: Error: symbol `__u' is already defined {standard input}:383: Error: symbol `__u' is already defined {standard input}:389: Error: symbol `__u' is already defined {standard input}:395: Error: symbol `__u' is already defined {standard input}:401: Error: symbol `__u' is already defined {standard input}:407: Error: symbol `__u' is already defined {standard input}:413: Error: symbol `__u' is already defined {standard input}:419: Error: symbol `__u' is already defined {standard input}:425: Error: symbol `__u' is already defined {standard input}:431: Error: symbol `__u' is already defined {standard input}:437: Error: symbol `__u' is already defined make: *** [GD.o] Error 1 /usr/bin/make -- NOT OK Running make test Can't test without successful make Running make install make had returned bad status, install seems impossible ---- The GD errors are numerous. These shown are only the last few lines. Using "perl, v5.8.0 built for i386-linux-thread-multi". Any help would be greatly appreciated.
