Subject: GD-2.32 requires perlxs from perl 5.8.0
First, thank you sincerely for GD.pm. I've used earlier versions on numerous platforms with success. However, my attempt to make GD-2.32 under Perl 5.6.0 on AIX 5.1 failed with the error shown in the attachment. On checking, I find that the perlxs macro framework (e.g., START_MY_CXT) was not available until Perl 5.8.0, while the GD-2.32 README says that Perl 5.6.0 or later is needed. This being the case, I invite you to consider updating the module (and the README) to require Perl 5.8.0. Many thanks. *** Distrib: GD-2.32 perl -v: This is perl, v5.6.0 built for aix O/S: AIX 5.1 -- Kirk Turner-Rustin | Programmer/Analyst Ohio Wesleyan University | Libraries and Information Services http://www.owu.edu | http://lis.owu.edu
