RE: Installation problems on Linux ...

[Ezekiel Urness <ezekiel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone would explain to me what needs to be done?  I 
have setup a 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/pub/linux/pilot/pilotmanager/pilotmgr/lib/perl5/i3  
86-linux/auto/PDA/Pilot/
And I still get that same error.

Thanks a bunch

Look at the line of code in DynaLoader.pm about which perl is
complaining.  I think there's some documentation in there about this
type of problem.

As I recall, I had to run ldconfig or add it to my LD_LIBRARY_PATH or
something before perl would recognize the .so's existence.

Good Luck!
