I just downloaded and tried to build and install Perl's Database Interface, DBI (yes the hard way, using Marefile.PL).
Configure completed fine, but make fails with: " make gcc-4 -c -DPERL_USE_SAFE_PUTENV -U__STRICT_ANSI__ -g -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -fstack-protector -DUSEIMPORTLIB -O3 -DVERSION=\"1.623\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.623\" "-I/usr/lib/perl5/5.14/i686-cygwin-threads-64int/CORE" -W -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wbad-function-cast -Wno-comment -Wno-sign-compare -Wno-cast-qual -Wmissing-noreturn -Wno-unused-parameter Perl.c /bin/sh: gcc-4: command not found Makefile:625: recipe for target `Perl.o' failed" The above also mentions "/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.14/i686-cygwin-threads-64int" which I do have on my system. I did not select it and I don't have a 64 bit system. Would this indicate a setup ini problem for perl? Erroneously its using "gcc-4" for the compiler which wont be found. Just mentioning this for those interested. Though I shouldnt have had /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.14/i686-cygwin-threads-64int et al installed. thanks -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
