if you are gonna build against the system Perl, why even bother, unless you are a sucker for punishment. Karl/Matt have done the work for you... grab SciKarl, double-click, and off you go. Before you can finish your latte, you will have a working PDL. On the other hand, if you do want control over what gets built, if you want to understand what goes where (well, the generic "you"... I am directing this toward a newbie-level person such as myself, not specifically at you), and if you don't want to monkey with what comes with the operating system lest you shoot yourself in your foot, then follow the detailed directions I have put up on the wiki and get yourself a working, custom PDL. > > Is it possible that Jared has not fully installed the xcode developer > environment (or whatever the optional stuff with compiler, libs, make etc is > called)?
