Question

Hello people,

Im having problems installing the plugin on a RedHatEnterpriseLinux 64bit machine.

When runing the _install.pl script, things fail with /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.6/../../../libc.so when searching for -lc etc...

I cant install the Date::Calc and the HTMLCalendar ...

I realize this is a Perl problem, not speciffically CalendarPlugin, but since other Perl modules do compile I figured maybe here somebody has also seen this problem. Google is no help...

Any suggestions how to get around this ?

Thanks !

Try the CPAN installer, see HowToInstallCpanModules.

Thanks. BTW, you can also attach files here. I am copying the part that failed in building Date::Calc :

gcc  -shared Calc.o DateCalc.o  -o blib/arch/auto/Date/Calc/Calc.so
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.6/../../../libc.so when searching for -lc
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.6/../../../libc.a when searching for -lc
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.so when searching for -lc
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.a when searching for -lc
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lc
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [blib/arch/auto/Date/Calc/Calc.so] Error 1
  /usr/bin/make  -- NOT OK

Sorry, I do not know how to fix that. Someone else might chime in. You could ask also in a Perl or CPAN forum.

Thanks for looking at this. I'll go over to the CPAN forums,and report back on the results.
