Hello, I am new in linux and I tried follow the instructions in the INSTALL file. First, there is no CPAN in my system, which is runs GNU/Linux on an i386 platform. The perl version is 5.8.6. When I tried "perl Makefile.PL", I received the following "Gentle" warning saying I don't have Astro::FITS:: Header module installed. Then I proceed to "make", and I got the following error message:

/paracel/usr/local/perl/bin/perl "-Iblib/arch" "-Iblib/lib" pdldoc.PL pdldoc Extracting pdldoc (NO bad value support) make[1]: Entering directory `/paracel/home/apang/bin/PDL-2.4.2/Basic' cp Reduce.pm ../blib/lib/PDL/Reduce.pm cp PDL.pm ../blib/lib/PDL.pm cp Lite.pm ../blib/lib/PDL/Lite.pm cp Options.pm ../blib/lib/PDL/Options.pm cp LiteF.pm ../blib/lib/PDL/LiteF.pm cp default.perldlrc ../blib/lib/PDL/default.perldlrc cp AutoLoader.pm ../blib/lib/PDL/AutoLoader.pm cp Lvalue.pm ../blib/lib/PDL/Lvalue.pm cp Matrix.pm ../blib/lib/PDL/Matrix.pm make[2]: Entering directory `/paracel/home/apang/bin/PDL-2.4.2/Basic/Pod' podselect ../Gen/Inline/Pdlpp.pm > PP-Inline.pod /bin/sh: line 1: podselect: command not found make[2]: *** [PP-Inline.pod] Error 127 make[2]: Leaving directory `/paracel/home/apang/bin/PDL-2.4.2/Basic/Pod' make[1]: *** [subdirs] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/paracel/home/apang/bin/PDL-2.4.2/Basic' make: *** [subdirs] Error 2

It seems like I am missing some functions, and I don't know how to get around it. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Andy
