Hello,

I am trying to compile a perl script using ActiveState's PerlApp, and use the created binary on linux.

My script makes use of BerkeleyDB so I need to include that module.

I compiled on debian and the app ran fine on that (and on ubuntu) but when I tested it on suse it complained that: 

Can't load 'auto/BerkeleyDB/BerkeleyDB.so' for module BerkeleyDB: auto
+/BerkeleyDB/BerkeleyDB.so: cannot open shared object file: No such fi
+le or directory at /</usr/share/myapp/myapp.bin>DynaLoader.pm line 21
+7.
 at perlapp line 810
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at yams.pl line 7.

I have tried specifying the --bind option which ActiveState suggest to use when including a library, but this doesn't change the issue.

Without BerkeleyDB the app works fine on all linux platforms.

Also, BerkeleyDB.so is included in the tmp/pdk-root/ directory that PerlApp creates when it runs which also holds libperl.so

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!
