Hi Daniel-

Your best bet for further progress is to use step by step
cpan installs (semi-manual) so that you can check things
as you go.  Brute force 'cpan module' only works when it
works.  I usually break down into stages for debugging:

   cpan> get module
   cpan> look module
   bash$ perl Makefile.PL
   bash$ make
   bash$ make test

where since you are going through the process manually,
you can better see, catch, and fix what might go wrong.

Cheers,
Chris

fedora, mandriva, ubuntu:
   The build was ok but now the issue of missing dependencies needs to
   be sorted out.  I've made a list from the test output (looking for
   the "skipped: ..." messages, and sorted it by the order I've found
   most useful.

     OpenGL was not compiled.  Need to build/install OpenGL-0.63.

     The FFTW library (version 2) was not found so PDL::FFTW was skipped.

     PDL::Slatec and PDL::Minuit were not built because no fortran
     compiler was found.  For that you need to install the perl ExtUtils::F77
     module which can probe for the compiler.  (NOTE: this is not listed
     as a required dependency to avoid the problem of many failures for
     systems without supported f77 compilers)

     PDL::Transform::Proj4 requires that the PROJ4 library and command be
     installed.  If it is there, it should be detected and used.

     PDL::GIS::Proj and PDL::Graphics::PLplot were not built, presumably
     because the PLplot library is not installed.

     PDL::Graphics::PGPLOT was skipped, presumably because the PGPLOT
     perl modules and the pgplot library are not installed.

     PDL::IO::GD did not find an installed libgd.

     PDL::GSL::INTERP and PDL::GSL::MROOT  were not tested because they
     apparently were not built.  If the GSL library is installed and these
     are present, then we would need to look into why they were not built.

     PDL::IO::HDF needs the HDF4 libraries to be installed.

     PDL::IO::NDF (I don't know about this one)


opensolaris:
   You seem to be missing a C compiler 'cc', see the error message in Inline::C
   The 'podselect' command does not seem to be found

opensuse:
   It seems ok so far but the Makefile was rebuilt and then, apparently,
   the make command was not rerun.
