install GD calls "perl Build.PL --installdirs site" but parameter is not allowed: cpan[17]> install GD Running install for module 'GD' Checksum for /home/ries/.cpan/sources/authors/id/L/LD/LDS/GD-2.56.tar.gz ok Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/perl/5.20/CPAN/Distribution.pm line 2864. Configuring L/LD/LDS/GD-2.56.tar.gz with Build.PL Configuring for libgd version 2.1.1-dev@. Checking for stray libgd header files...none found. Unknown option: installdirs Usage: perl Build.PL [options] Configure GD module. Options: -options "JPEG,FT,PNG,GIF,XPM,ANIMGIF" feature options, separated by commas -lib_gd_path path path to libgd -lib_ft_path path path to Freetype library -lib_png_path path path to libpng -lib_jpeg_path path path to libjpeg -lib_xpm_path path path to libxpm -lib_zlib_path path path to libpng -ignore_missing_gd Ignore missing or old libgd installations and try to compile anyway If no options are passed on the command line. The program will attempt to autoconfigure itself with the gdlib-config program (present in GD versions 2.0.27 or later). Otherwise it will prompt for these values interactively. Warning: No success on command[/usr/bin/perl Build.PL --installdirs site] LDS/GD-2.56.tar.gz /usr/bin/perl Build.PL --installdirs site -- NOT OK Failed during this command: LDS/GD-2.56.tar.gz : writemakefile NO '/usr/bin/perl Build.PL --installdirs site' returned status 512 Cheers, David

With RURBAN/GD-2.56_03.tar.gz and the upcoming official RURBAN/GD-2.57.tar.gz I've removed Build.PL --installdirs site is the default with EUMM, but you can force it with make install_site -- Reini Urban
