I'm kinda new as this so keep that in mind. I got the latest code from cvs today. When I do make install I get this error

You need perl installed to build from CVS.  If you don't want to do
that, consider building from the nightly tarball snapshot instead.

(Probably configure ought to warn about this, the same way it warns
about missing bison and flex.)

Perl is missing.  Make sure you have it installed and configure finds
it.

Ah yes that would be nice. I hit those issues but the warning gave me enough information to go out and install the needed peices.

Thanks

I installed perl as seen below. I than ran my configre and make install from the same prompt that you see below. However I still get the error message.

Before I waste much of your valuable time, I will play with paths and make sure the Perl install really set the path like it said it would.

Ok I good to go. I just entered the path in and made a variable called PERL with a value of perl. Not sure if that last part is needed but I had to do that with FLEX if I remeber correctly.
