Date: Mon, 29 Dec 2014 23:28:44 +0100
To: bug-GD [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Romain Naour <romain.naour [...] openwide.fr>
Hi, Perl-GD 2.53 is available for building an embedded system with Buildroot thank to François Perad's work (see: http://www.buildroot.net). Buildroot use exclusively the cross-compilation to build the entire system, perl-gd included. François Perad reported several issues related to cross-compilation through github's pull request but his commits haven't been merged yet. https://github.com/lstein/Perl-GD/pull/6 https://github.com/lstein/Perl-GD/pull/7 Recently, I have fixed another issue: http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2014-December/115521.html Please see all patches that fixes Makefile.PL here: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/tree/package/perl-gd Since the Perl-GD 2.55, the build system use Build.PL and the same kind of fixes needs to be applied. Best regards, Romain Naour

3 of the 4 patches are in, basically. I did the gdlib-config-path setting is via $lib_gd_path/../bin/ which should do it with cross or unusual --prefix settings. Fallback is gdlib-config in the path. Please notify if --gdlib-config-path is really needed still -- Reini Urban
