I purchased my first Mac expressly to run Mac OS X DP4. Only if you feel you're in over your head ;-). Since I'm a bit new to the osX world it seem like starting with a clean slate might be a solution. Well, I installed Xcode That, in a nutshell, was the problem. Panther needs Xcode. Older Project Builder releases will sort of work - for some value of work - but they're unsupported on Panther, and using them can lead to all sorts of difficult to diagnose problems. sherm-- Yes, at first I tried installing only the BSD SDK thinking that would cover what I needed. But I wasn't able to get the module to install until I went back an install everything. --Phil

If you upgraded from Jaguar (or earlier), and you haven't installed Xcode yet, do that - you'll get the newer GCC 3.3 with it. Then, do a 'sudo gcc_select 3.3' - that will make the newer GCC 3.3 the default instead of 3.1. (You can also do a 'gcc_select --list' to show what versions are installed, and 'gcc_select' w/o parameters to show the current default.) Like Ed mentioned, GCC versions prior to 3.3 may not understand the -undefined dynamic_lookup switch. At this point, maybe the best thing would be to reinstall osX? I'm guessing you're a recent refugee from Windows? ;-) Sir, you wound me! ;-) I've never used a windows for more than a hour without feeling ill. I will admit to being a long time system 6, 7, 8, 9 user and this unix stuff is still a bit heady. Well, I installed Xcode and ran sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::LWP' again and this time it seemed to go well. Thank you and every else for the help!
