Hello all,

  I tried installing Prima from the CPAN on a system running SuSE 9.3
in 64-bit (X86_64) mode. I have installed Prima on other 32-bit
mode SuSE 9.3 systems and it works all right (apart from the fix to
install lib ungif but that is OK).

  But ont he 64-bit system I get the following:

Setting up working environment.
Determining compiler type... GNU
Version: 1.18
X11 includes found in /usr/X11R6/include
Prima needs X11 libraries for compilation! Perhaps, you have
non-standard path to X11? (see makefile.log for details) Running make
test Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't test
Running make install
  Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't install

Then I look into Makefile.PL to find:

   my $libpath = find_lib( "X11", '',
      "/usr/X11R6/lib",
      "/usr/X11/lib",
      "usr/X/lib");

   die "Prima needs X11 libraries for compilation! Perhaps, you have
non-standard path to X11? $extramsg\n" unless defined $libpath;

  So then I look into the concerned directory:

cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/

  And I do a ls:

app-defaults/ ja/ mgp/ x11perfcomp/ xmcd/
bindings/ ja_JP/ nls/ xdm@ Xmodmap@
Cards ja_JP.eucJP/ Options xedit/ Xmodmap.remote@
config/ ja_JP.SJIS/ Pixmap/ XErrorDB Xresources@

getconfig/ ko_KR.eucKR/ system.mwmrc XKeysymDB zh_TW/
gv/ lbxproxy@ twm@ xmahjongg/ zh_TW.Big5/
icons/ locale/ wmmount/ xman.help

  That seems like the same content as the 32-bit mode machine.

  Anyone know why Prima has problems installing on the 64-bit machine ?

Cheers,

Alain
