Hi Rob. 

I need a little more hand holding. I am confused by which renaming one should 
do. Is this the name of the directory in the build_params file in the _build 
directory for the PDL-Drawing-Prima? Or is this something that I need to do 
with the Prima install itself?
Thanks,

Only trouble with that theory is that 0.02 also no longer builds for me - so, 
something that I've installed into my perl builds since I last successfully 
built 0.02 (on 23rd May 2012) is breaking PDL::Drawing::Prima.

After spending a good part of today puzzling over this, I finally discovered 
that I'd found a solution earlier. (See my 2 posts of March 5 in this
thread.)
Seems it's just a matter of renaming perl/site/lib/auto/Prima/Prima.a to 
perl/site/lib/auto/Prima/libPrima.a, and then re-building PDL::Drawing::Prima 
from scratch.
That works for me.

I recall recently rebuilding Prima and wondering why the 32-bit builds created 
a libPrima.a, but the 64-bit builds created Prima.a.
Having forgottent the importance of the 32-bit import lib being named 
"libPrima.a", I let it revert to "Prima.a" .... which doesn't matter at all 
until one comes to building PDL::Drawing::Prima.
I must keep a note of why it has to be that way so I don't do the same thing 
again.

I suspect it has something to do with there being 2 files named Prima.dll, but 
I still don't understand why the 64-bit builds are not similarly affected. And 
I don't know precisely what it is that *ought* to be fixed (Prima ? 
ExtUtils::Depends ? Perl itself ?)

Cheers,
Rob
