This queue is for tickets about the GDGraph CPAN distribution.

Maintainer(s)' notes

There are plenty of good ideas of what people can do published here on the queue. Turning a patch from the tracker into a pull request is not one of them. In order to get maintainers' attention way more quickier, PR should have at least a sample included. We know it's hard to test images generating software, but it doesn't mean we can not test numbers produced by intermediate algorithms used to generate these images, so either a test or a sample.

Running (Ubuntu 16.10, perl version 5.24.1): $ cpanm GD::Graph [...] Unpacking GD-2.56.tar.gz Entering GD-2.56 Checking configure dependencies from META.json Checking if you have Module::Build 0.42 ...

A pkg-config script should be used instead.

It's GD that you can not install. Could not find gdlib-config in the search path. Please install libgd 2.0.28 or higher. Running Makefile.PL Notice: Type perl Makefile.PL -h for command-line option summary. And it even provides details. -- Best regards, Ruslan.

>It's GD that you can not install.
No don't think so, I had of course tried to install libgd before submitting this ticket. Here is the commands I tried: $ sudo apt-get install libgd-dev $ sudo apt-get install libgd-perl None of these packages contained 'gdlib-config'. Then I tried search for packages containing 'gdlib-config': $ apt-file search gdlib-config But it gave me no result. Based on the link I gave above, I believe gdlib-config is dead (it has been removed from the newest Ubuntu packages). 2017-04-14 13:59 GMT+02:00 Ruslan Zakirov via RT <bug-GDGraph@rt.cpan.org>: Show quoted text

Have you read what you sent in the very first message? GD is a separate module and dependency of this. Text you provided says GD module fails to install. It's very unusual, but in Debian and Ubuntu gdlib-config is in libgd2-xpm-dev.

libgd2-xpm-dev: Actually it is not in libgd2-xpm-dev: $ sudo apt-get install libgd2-xpm-dev Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Note, selecting 'libgd-dev' instead of 'libgd2-xpm-dev' libgd-dev is already the newest version (2.2.1-1ubuntu3.3). The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: linux-headers-4.8.0-39 linux-headers-4.8.0-39-generic linux-headers-4.8.0-41 linux-headers-4.8.0-41-generic linux-image-4.8.0-39-generic linux-image-4.8.0-41-generic linux-image-extra-4.8.0-39-generic linux-image-extra-4.8.0-41-generic linux-signed-image-4.8.0-39-generic linux-signed-image-4.8.0-41-generic Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 115 not upgraded. So it would install libgd-dev instead (which I have already installed). Also $ dpkg -L libgd-dev | grep gdlib-config [ no output ] It seems from the link you gave to Szabo's blog that gdlib-config was present in that package 5 years ago, but no longer is. (Trying to install GD module does not help: cpanm GD gives same error message as cpanm GD::Graph ) 2017-04-14 18:15 GMT+02:00 Ruslan Zakirov via RT <bug-GDGraph@rt.cpan.org>: Show quoted text
