Hi,
I am a newbie on Unix, Perl and C. So I am hopeless. I get bored with
compilation problems. Let me explain: I installed gcc v.2.95.2, Activeperl
5.6.1631 on my Solaris 2.8 box. Perl thinks that I have a installed version
"cc", so when I try to install a Perl module, it creates a Makefile which
uses "cc". But it fails with a error code "/usr/ucb/cc: language optional
software package not installed". One solution to this problem is changing cc
to gcc on every Makefile, but a lot of argument mismatch problems occur. The
other solution is changing Perl configuration, so that Perl uses gcc, but I
don't know how?
Thanks,
Bulent
