Re: Perl Tk in Cygwin (using X)


Hi Gerrit,
	Not quite there yet...

I went to '/usr/X11R6/bin'. There is no file 'libX11.dll.a', but there is a 'libX11.dll', so I did 'ln -s libX11.dll libX11.a'. I closed the window, opened a new bash session, and tried compiling. I got the same error (below).

Did I pick the right directory? Did I pick the right file?

It's obviously not finding (lib|cyg)X11 (it's not even on the link line).
Do you have XFree86-prog package installed?  XFree86-bin?
XFree86-lib-compat?


It is this ugly problem: There is a libX11.dll.a whereas MakeMaker looks
for libX11.a and doesn't see the .dll.a.

Workaround is to create symlinks (ln -s libX11.dll.a libX11.a) until I
fixed perl.
