You also need Math::Pari installed. (and thus also Pari)

Apart from that, the error above happens some times and I haven't found out
yet why. You probably have old versions of Math::BigInt installed (5.6.1
core comes with v0.01 or something), which confuses MakeMaker.

Try

        make install UNINST=1

or delete the v0.01 files BigInt.pm and BigFloat.pm manually, they are
probably in /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/lib/Math and
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/lib/Math.

        find /usr -name BigInt.pm -print

should locate all copies.

Thank you for your time!
