Ran the install script to install P4 again but no change in the error message. I did a nm P4.so | grep <symbol_name> to see it is installed in that shared library off /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 BUT the P4 and P4.so is NOT found in /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/..... I thought this was normal but the error message notes that 'standard' path missing something...and it is to be sure but why?
