Re^3: installing Math::pari

The idea is that you go to the link posted by jdtoronto ( http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/x86/Math-Pari.tar.gz ) and download the Math-Pari zip. Then extract that zip file to some folder, 'cd' to that folder and do what the Readme tells you to do. However ... don't know if it was just me ... or if the website was down when I tried .. or what ... but I couldn't download the zip file. As an alternative, download http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/x86/Math-Pari.tar.gz and place it in some folder and 'cd' to that folder. In the same folder, place a file named Math-Pari.ppd that looks like this:

 <SOFTPKG NAME="Math-Pari" VERSION="2,010500,0,0">
    <TITLE>Math-Pari</TITLE>
    <ABSTRACT>Perl interface to PARI</ABSTRACT>
    <AUTHOR>Ilya Zakharevich &lt;cpan@ilyaz.org&gt;</AUTHOR>
    <IMPLEMENTATION>
        <OS NAME="MSWin32" />
        <ARCHITECTURE NAME="MSWin32-x86-multi-thread-5.8" />
        <CODEBASE HREF="Math-Pari.tar.gz" />
    </IMPLEMENTATION>
</SOFTPKG>
[download]

Then run:
ppm install Math-Pari.ppd

Cheers,
Rob

sorry for giving trouble for this module ... iam trying to installing in AIX server .frist i start gp/pari installi +ng pari-2.3.0.tat.gz i.e not installing properly... and i saw code MakeFile.PL in Math::Pari if ($os eq "solaris") { # Some older versions needed -lsunmath to import exp2(). This is # probably not needed anymore (though can speed things up). # Below -R specifies the path to search for this file when the # program will run, -L the path to search when the program is linked # @sc_dirs = '/opt/SUNWspro/lib' if -d '/opt/SUNWspro/lib'; # @sc_dirs = </opt/SUNWspro/SC*/lib> unless @sc_dirs; # if (@sc_dirs) { # $libs .= " -R$sc_dirs[-1] -L$sc_dirs[-1] -lsunmath -lm"; # } else { # #warn "Cannot find SUNWspro dirs, needed for -lsunmath, using NOE +XP2.\n"; $noexp2 = 1; # } } elsif ($os eq "os2") { $noexp2 = 1; $define .= " -DMALLOC_PROCS"; } elsif ($os eq 'linux') { $noexp2 = 1; } my %opts; unless ($common::parilib) { build_tests $paridir; # Convert the test suite make_pod 'libPARI.pod', '-to_pod', $paridir; # Now the docs make_pod 'libPARI.dumb.pod', '-to_dumb_pod', $paridir; %opts = build_paricfg($paridir, $common::do_configure); # ... and pa +ricfg.h like this,but i couldn't find AIx os in that code shall we use Math::Pari for Aix even Pari-2.3.0tar.gz also not install +ed properly can you suggest me ... what steps to take [download]	[reply] [d/l]
