[ome-users] Installation of OME server 2.6.0 stable fails on Mandriva 2007

Sat Mar 17 14:47:54 GMT 2007

It appears that Mandriva 2007 doesn't have a complete installation of  
Perl:

> linux/CORE/EXTERN.h', needed by `Pix.o'.  Stop.

You might try:
find /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 -name "EXTERN.h"

If the header EXTERN.h is in a different path than "/usr/lib/ 
perl5/5.8.8/i386-linux/CORE/EXTERN.h", then perl isn't configured  
properly to know where its header files are.  If you don't find  
EXTERN.h at all, it might simply mean that the perl you've installed  
was distributed without header files.  In any case, a misconfigured  
perl on a unix OS doesn't bode very well.

If you are interested in getting OME to run, I would recommend a  
supported platform (FedoraCore or Debian).  If you're interested in  
getting it running on Mandriva 2007 specifically, it looks like there  
might be some trouble.  The fact that there are missing header files  
isn't encouraging.

This could potentially be an artifact of user permissions, or the  
location where you're trying to install.  Are you trying to install  
it from /tmp? Maybe trying it from a normal user's home directory  
would work better.

Good luck,
Ilya
