Hi,
I'm currently trying to install the GD module for Perl on FreeBSD 4.10
and I'm experiencing some issues. I'm using the cpan to install but a
make test fails, reporting:
module GD: /usr/local/lib/libgd.so.2: Undefined symbol "libiconv_open"
at /usr/
local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/mach/DynaLoader.pm line 229
I'm relatively inexperienced with Perl so I'd appreciate any thought or
ideas.
Cheers,
Matt

Some Perl modules depend on non-Perl libraries. GD.pm uses libgd, for
example. GD.pm also apparently uses libiconv, a portable library for
converting between different international character sets.
Libiconv home and source can be found here:
http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/
Or you can install libiconv as a pre-compiled FreeBSD package.
Regards,
Bill K.

Thanks for your reply.
According to pkg_info, it's already installed:
libiconv-1.9.1_3 A character set conversion library
I've also noticed these errors when compiling the module from source
(with perl Makefile.PL):
Unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: '/usr/local/lib/libiconv.so'
Unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: '-Wl,-rpath'
Unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: '-Wl,/usr/local/lib'
Any thoughts?
Cheers,
Matthew

Try changing this to -liconv in @LIBS in Makefile.PL.
(Just guessing...'cpan> install GD' worked for me in Slackware Linux.)

Tim,
It's a good thought, but I've already tried it.
The @LIBS: -lgd -lpng -lz -liconv
