I have been trying to figure out this problem for a few days now... I am trying to install a set of dependent modules for mogilefs. Yesterday, I was hung up on installing IO::AIO due to error: undefined symbol. I forget specifically what symbol, but google says it's a method in the perl API. After chatting with people in the chatterbox, it was decided that I needed to upgrade from Perl 5.8.8 to 5.10. - Now I have done that, and I have installed IO::AIO seemingly successfully, and I'm getting hung-up on the next module: Gearman::Client::Async - same basic problem:

Running make test PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/local/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" " +test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/allinone........Can't load '/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.0/x86_64-linux +/auto/IO/IO.so' for module IO: /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.0/x86_64-lin +ux/auto/IO/IO.so: undefined symbol: PL_sv_undef at /usr/local/lib/per +l5/5.10.0/x86_64-linux/XSLoader.pm line 64. at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.0/x86_64-linux/IO.pm line 11


another symbol that should be in the perl API... what gives? this is driving me mad. This is a Brand spanking new Debian Etch amd64 machine. Completely fresh out of the box. These are the packages I have updated via apt-get:

apt-get install openssh-server build-essential libmysqlclient15-dev subversion

then I downloaded and compiled, make, make test, make install:
perl-5.10.0.tar.gz
Then installed:
perl -MCPAN -e shell; install IO::AIO - seemed to work fine install Gearman::Client::Async - FAIL (see msg above)
Please Help?
