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

I'm having issues compiling GD on a Solaris 11 server. I've tried both with the Sun compiler and gcc. Below is the output from each attempt with each compiler. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Native compiler

    You're switching compilers and you didn't make realclean? Not likely to work

    also perlgcc doesn't appear to have been updated in a decade -- I hear installing a new perl using gcc ( say in /usr/local/opt or some such) is easier to work with

      Thanks for the "make realclean" tip, I was just removing the directory and re-downloading it between each attempt to compile. So I downloaded and compiled the latest version of perl and I was able to get GD compiled. Now I'm having a very similar error trying to compile SNMP
      root@solaris11:~/.cpan/build/SNMP-5.0401-n2C6m8# make test cp SNMP.pm blib/lib/SNMP.pm AutoSplitting blib/lib/SNMP.pm (blib/lib/auto/SNMP) /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.16.2/ExtUtils/xsubpp -nopro +totypes -typemap /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.16.2/ExtUtils/typemap -typema +p typemap SNMP.xs > SNMP.xsc && mv SNMP.xsc SNMP.c gcc -c -DNETSNMP_ENABLE_IPV6 -m32 -xO4 -xchip=pentium -xregs=no%fra +meptr -mt -xc99=all -Dsolaris2=solaris2 -DFALSE_SHARING_ALIGN=64 -I. +-I/usr/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DPERL_USE_ +SAFE_PUTENV -DPERL_USE_SAFE_PUTENV -O -DVERSION=\"5.0401\" -DXS_V +ERSION=\"5.0401\" -KPIC "-I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.16.2/i86pc-solaris/ +CORE" SNMP.c gcc: unrecognized option '-KPIC' gcc: language c99=all not recognized gcc: language c99=all not recognized gcc: SNMP.c: linker input file unused because linking not done Running Mkbootstrap for SNMP () chmod 644 SNMP.bs rm -f blib/arch/auto/SNMP/SNMP.so LD_RUN_PATH="/usr/lib" gcc -G -L/usr/lib -L/usr/ccs/lib -L/opt/solari +sstudio12.3/prod/lib -L/lib -L/usr/gnu/lib SNMP.o -o blib/arch/auto/ +SNMP/SNMP.so \ -L/usr/lib -lnetsnmp -lgen -lelf -lnsl -lsocket -lkstat \ gcc: SNMP.o: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `blib/arch/auto/SNMP/SNMP +.so'
      This is the last module I need compiled...help would be greatly appreciated.
