Re^2: Installing Perl Wrapper Module for a C Library (Tree::Suffix) Locally

I would very much like to see the first error that the CPAN shell gets

Hi fizbin,
This is the error I got:

The problematic line is this line: `Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lstree` [download] I don't know why MakeMaker outputs this "propably harmless" message, because in my experience, it has never been harmless whenever I encountered it. This error message means that the Makefile.PL could not find the library `stree`, most likely because you didn't supply the correct `-L` and `-I` switches to it. This seems especially valid as your `stree` library is installed in an uncommon path I think. You will have to run your Makefile.PL manually and supply the correct paths to where the header/include files of the `stree` library got installed. Most likely like: `perl -w Makefile.PL "INCLUDE=-I ../stree/include" "LIBS=-L ../stree/li +b"` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Okay, so it would appear that Makefile.PL and CPAN are not honoring your cflags environment setting. Furthermore, it appears that you need to pass extra C flag arguments to Makefile.PL as "CCFLAGS", not "CFLAGS". So, I would suggest trying this: `perl Makefile.PL CCFLAGS="$CFLAGS" LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS"` [download] That should produce a Makefile that you can use with "make". -- `@/=map{[/./g]}qw/.h_nJ Xapou cets krht ele_ r_ra/; map{y/X_/\n /;print}map{pop@$_}@/for@/` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
