Bug #611 for perltk:

Wed May 15 11:37:33 2002 Guest - Ticket created

I downloaded Tk800.023.tar.gz from cpam. I followed the isntallation instructions in the file INSTALL for static linking: ------------------------------- For static linking the following is how it is supposed to work (I think, but I don't use static linking normally, this scheme worked as far as this on one trial under SunOS4.) perl Makefile.PL make make tkperl make test # should work This builds a perl with Tk statically linked in the Tk directory thus: ./tkperl -Mblib demos/widget ./tkperl -Mblib basic_demo should now work. -------------------- The first two steps work, but when I do the following: [ot@papc-mag-17 Tk800.023]# make tkperl make: *** No rule to make target `tkperl'. Stop. I am attempting to build on RedHat7.3. A normal install works fine.

The static instructions only apply to platforms that normally build static, or with a perl with dynamic linking disabled. Ticket should have been against 'Tk' the module name. Show quoted text

Please put me on the distro list for these reports, even if they're known issues like static builds. The bug report took 'way to long to get back to me. Thanks, RKIES
