Re: building PerlMagick with perlbrew provided perl on Debian

Hi, FWIW (?) I am running 5.32.0 via perlbrew but I see libperl5.30/focal,now 5.30.0-9build1 amd64 [installed,upgradable to: 5.30.0-9ubuntu0.2] is installed. I definitely did not install that manually.

Hope this helps!

The way forward always starts with a minimal test.

Thank you, this is helpful in explaining part of the situation. I will add that the `PerlMagick/Makefile` created during the configure and build process of ImageMagick/PerlMagick most definitely accounts for the paths associated with the `perlbrew` `perl`, including variables like `PERL_INC`, etc. The path to the architecturally dependent `libperl.a` in the proper "`/CORE`" directory is even properly detected and in the `PerlMagick/Makefile`. If anything, it seems that the linker step is not using that information - - might have something with the following environmental variables not being respected somehow: `LDFLAGS`, `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`, `LD_RUN_PATH` - possible another few that are linker related. This may also point to the need to run `/usr/bin/ldconfig` at some point on either the custom ImageMagick lib path(s) or `perl`'s, which then tells me there might be some assumption being made my ImageMagick's build infrastructure that is being violated by the introduction of `perlbrew` - or at least a non-privileged build of `perl` more generally. I'll keep poking at it, but in the mean time I'll probably just `apt-get install libperl-dev` this and move along.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
