Perl Problems

[Stephen McCullough]

Hi,

Could someone please help? 

I recently installed Linux on my laptop. I am trying to get some of the 
modules I use from the CPAN, this is what I get:    

/usr/lib/perl/5.8.0/CORE/perl.h:1969: pthread.h: No such file or directory

make: *** [Piece.o] Error 1
  /usr/bin/make  -- NOT OK

The module in question is Class::DBI, but I get the same for Time::Piece as
well. So I take it that it will be the same for whatever modules I install :(

I never installed 'c' on my laptop on the initial install, has this anything to
do with it? I upgraded to Perl 5.8.0 last night, but the above happened when I was
running Perl 5.6.1 as well.

Please help :)
