Re^3: Perl install ignores -Dprefix by Khen1950fx (Canon) on May 22, 2014 at 20:50 UTC
Is `/app/perl` a directory? I usually unpack a perl tarball then rename the directory to the perl version number that I just unpacked as the installation prefix. For example: `mv /opt/perl444-27-O1-5.20.0-RC1 /opt` [download] `perl444` stands for perl using gcc-4.4.4; the `27` represents the OS which is the 2.6.27 kernel; `O1`((that's capital O followed by 1) stands for the optimization flag that I will use; lastly, the version number which I'm using. Next, you probably should set the path for your compiler and its library: `export CC=/opt/444/bin/gcc export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib` [download] Then change directory: `cd /opt/perl444-27-O1-5.20.0-RC1` [download] Now, following Corion's advice: `./Configure -Dcc=/opt/444/bin/gcc -Dprefix=/opt/perl444-27-O0-5.20.0-R +C1 -DDEBUGGING` [download] Hit `Enter` and it starts the configuration.

do `make clean` or start with fresh directory (delete everything, unpack tarball, tar -zxvf perl...tar.gz )	[reply] [d/l]
