Hi Simon:  version 0.18 is pretty old--I'm not surprised that is
does not install.

More recent versions of PDL come with PDL-Graphics-PLplot as part of the distribution.

Also, I've just uploaded my most recent PDL-Graphics-PLplot (version 0.30)
to PAUSE--it should be available on CPAN in a few minutes.

This version is *slightly* more up-to-date than the one contained in the most recent PDL (2.4.3).

Regards,

  Doug

hello,

i apologize for contacting you directly, but i've posted without success,
and can't find a report of a similar problem elsewhere

i'm trying to make the D/DH/DHUNT/PDL-Graphics-PLplot-0.18.tar.gz package
(if i try to install directly from CPAN it doesn't work...)

cpan> install D/DH/DHUNT/PDL-Graphics-PLplot-0.18.tar.gz
Running make for D/DH/DHUNT/PDL-Graphics-PLplot-0.18.tar.gz
Is already unwrapped into directory /usr/share/.cpan/build/PDL-
Graphics-PLplot-0.18
Makefile.PL returned status 512
Running make test
Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't test
Running make install
Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't install

so instead i tried to install from the download directory (
/usr/share/.cpan/build/PDL-Graphics-PLplot-0.18) using the instructions in
the README file.
I managed to perl Makefile.PL ok after adding correct include paths
but makeblows up with

make: *** [PLplot.o] Error 1

but i don't get any reported errors to work with.
I have attached the full output from the build.
I am running SuSE 10.1 on a dual x86_64 system

if you have any suggestions about what to look for, it would be greatly
appreciated.


cheers
