i've got the problem fixed. haveing read my last post again, i got a little pale ... then more than just a little red... i install the shared libz in /lib not /usr/lib as in the book. meanwhile its obvious to change the sed accordingly. and as expected, "ldd Zlib.so" now shows libz.so as a fourth entry!! perl test has no errors, cpan can be installed. once again the bug just was sitting in front of the screen... sorry tobias -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
