Chernoch" Subject: Build of Perl Tk Module fails with Cygwin Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed I am trying to build the Tk Perl module for Cygwin. I can find no special Cygwin readme in the release, so expected clear sailing, but instead was confronted with these messages from the CPAN module: CPAN.pm: Going to build N/NI/NI-S/Tk402.004.tar.gz /usr/bin/perl is installed in /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/cygwin okay Test Compiling config/signedchar.c Test Compiling config/Ksprintf.c Test Compiling config/tod.c Test Compiling -DTIMEOFDAY_TZ config/tod.c TZ gettimeofday() Cannot find xmkmf Cannot find -lX11 anywhere at ./myConfig line 284. Compilation failed in require at Makefile.PL line 12. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 14. I tried the module by itself as well as in Bundle::Tk. That "-X11" switch sounds like X-Windows to me; do I need an entire X-Windows installation to use this? Or can it piggy back on Windows like my Activestate Perl Tk does? Here is hoping that someone has worked with Tk. - Paul . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
