Hi,
I think that cpanm's "--configure-args" capability might be helpful to you here.
Check the cpanm documentation.

I rarely use any of the cpan* modules, but if you (alternatively) wanted to build modules manually, you could look at the ExtUtils::MakeMaker documentation for (eg) modifying CCFLAGS.
One thing that I've successfully used in manual builds is to modify the "CC" setting, so you might find that something like the following works:

perl Makefile.PL CC="cc -F /Library/Frameworks"
[download]

If that works, I'd probably just rebuild perl with the -Dcc="cc -F /Library/Frameworks" argument.

Cheers,
Rob

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
