Math::Pari install problem

2007fld has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm manually installing Math::Pari.

Perl Makefile.pl works fine with the paridir, although I'm suspicisous with one of the warnings in ###

I have seen the similar error "out of memory allocating ** bytes after a total of ** bytes" when I compiled gp/pari library. A workaround that 'change -O3 flag' in pari2.5.3/configure/src/get_cc" worked. Now I see this error again when install Math::Pari, but I don't know what to do....

Are you sure the compat libraries are properly installed already like libcompat* or similar --I would just check it as part of my checklist before running "make test". Also the output is not complete so there might be something else as well its not clear to me just with the last few line of output you have posted. I would look at the available libraries for any missing requirements. Install them first then run "make test".	[reply]

I usually do `make realclean perl Makefile.PL machine=none make install` [download] Using `machine=none` avoids a lot of assembler problems.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Hello, I got this problem: Did not find GP/PARI build directory around. Do you want to me to fetch GP/PARI automatically? (If you do not, you will need to fetch it manually, and/or direct me + to the directory with GP/PARI source via the command-line option parid +ir=/dir) Make sure you have a large scrollback buffer to see the messages, or ` +tee' the STDOUT/STDERR to a file. Fetch? (y/n, press Enter) Well, as you wish... (...) One can rerun Makefile.PL after fetching GP/PARI archive (e.g., pari-2 +.1.7.tgz, or pari-2.3.4.tar.gz) manually to the current directory, or a (grand)p +arent directory of the current directory. [Keep in mind that the numbers "inside version" of Math::Pari module correspond to the last versions of GP/PARI it was tested with (addi +tionally, 2.0108* works best with the last 2.1.* version, 2.1.7).
