RE: Re: DBI-1.59 install failure on Ubuntu. lacking......compiler complains of missing files

I am using Ubuntu at home and have successfully installed all the C
development tools necessary to
a) install things like Perl and Perl libraries
b) write Linux device drivers

Getting all the development packages installed in Ubuntu took several
hours' effort one evening. Basically the first thing you need to do is
set up hello.c and hello.C test cases and keep hammering at the
installation until you can get them working.

Unfortunately I'm not at home right now so I can't check what packages
I've got.

Also, one of the first things you want to do in Ubuntu is change the
root password so you don't have to use 'sudo' all the time. You effect
this password change the first time using 'sudo', of course.

lacking......compiler complains of missing files


I have tried to install some libc packages, but no
luck.
I guess I have to sign up for a ubuntu mailing list
too, but thanks for replying.
