First, this plug-ins/perl dir seems to be overflowing with niglets. cvs checkout CFLAGS=... CPPFLAGS=... autogen.sh --with-mp=yes --enable-perl [--disable-nls]
Next I try a few things. 'make maintainer-clean' || 'make distclean' || 'make clean' (all results similar; follows) ... Making maintainer-clean in perl make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/cvs/gimp/plug-ins/perl' make[2]: *** No rule to make target `maintainer-clean'. Stop. (fresh checkout and run autogen with/without --disable-nls) $ make Making all in plug-ins/perl/po make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/cvs/gimp/plug-ins/perl/po' make[2]: *** No rule to make target `all'.

Further, why is this trying to use a pre-existing installation of gimp? I don't have an install of gimp on this machine so I surely won't have either gimp .h files nor gimptool. After compiling and installing glib-1.2: $ perl Makefile.PL loading cache ./config.cache checking for gimp... no checking for gimptool... (cached) no checking for GIMP - version >= 1.0.4... no *** The gimptool script installed by GIMP could not be found *** If GIMP was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in *** your path, or set the GIMPTOOL environment variable to the *** full path to gimptool. configure: warning: ** unable to find gimp ./configure: no: command not found ./configure: no: command not found ./configure: test: -lt: unary operator expected checking for glib-config...

It successfully builds the Makefile now but it still doesn't have the expected pre-installed header files. So I start off on a journey of flag waving.. $ LDFLAGS="-L../../libgimp/.libs/ -L../../libgimpwidgets/.libs -L../../libgimpcolor/.libs/ -L../../libgimpmath/.libs/ -L../../libgimpbase/.libs/" CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -I../.. -I(insert cflags for glib)" perl Makefile.PL (replaced with /usr/src/cvs/gimp for autogen.sh) Now we're getting nowhere again.
