Re^5: How to add path to @INC

CJFIELDS/BioPerl-1.6.924.tar.gz
: writemakefile NO '/usr/local/bin/perl Build.PL --installdirs site' returned status 2

This looks like an issue with Module::Build.
Apparently your version of Module::Build cannot handle the --installdirs site arguments.
Perhaps your version of Module::Build is too old or too new.

If you need additional information about that I think you should take it up with the BioPerl folk (or maybe someone else will update this thread with better information).

Sorry - I can't even look properly at Module::Build issues.
Such is my loathing of that module that any attempt to diagnose problems with it just leaves me wanting to throw a brick through the console, and I'm not prepared to waste a perfectly good brick over Module::Build.

If Module::Build gets in the way of allowing a module to install, then I just go without that module.
Thankully, so far, this policy has not meant that I've had to do without a module that I really want.

Cheers,
Rob

Hi Rob! Now I have a new problem with the module GD When I try install de module GD::Text I have this: `Can't load '/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.24.0/x86_64-linux/auto/GD/GD.so' for module GD: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.24.0/x86_64-linux/auto/GD/GD.so: undefined symbol: PL_thr_key at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.24.0/x86_64-linux/DynaLoader.pm line 193.` When I try `cpan install GD` GD is up to date (2.56) I really need to fix this to run a software! Can you help me once more? Cheers TSN	[reply] [d/l] [select]

you're mixing incompatible perls, a GD compiled against a threaded perl, being run from a non-threaded perl, it won't work, can't mix threaded/non threaded, can't mix versions (ex 5.22 and 5.24.1) you need to recompile/reinstall GD with the version of perl you're trying to run	[reply]

Thanks, How can I see the versions of perl that I have? When I type perl -v ---- This is perl 5, version 24, subversion 0 (v5.24.0) built for x86_64-linux! Indeed when I type perldoc perllocal to see all modules GD doesn't appear! Best, TSN	[reply]
