in reply to perl-5.18.0 install problem - Part 2

What kind of compiler are you using?

I kinda recall seeing some mention of "gcc ought to work" in that other thread :)

      I think the issue is with one of the linker options, but I could not find where it is configured. Specifically the:

      -unres_symbols error

      should be replaced with:

      -unres_symbols ignore

        Well, you're looking in the right direction, but none of those symbols should be unresolved -- Perl_sv_bless is bless and so on

        I know win32 needs this (apparently no symbols are exported by default) and linux doesn't (apparently everything is exported by default)

        So you should check that your Makefile-s are calling makedef.pl and that there exists a embed.fnc that objdump -p perl518.so lists Perl_sv_bless
