Hi,
I'm trying to install javascript support in perl, so that I can get my XMLTV grabber going again. I couldn't find any packages in portage that provide this. I've been advised to run:-
| Code: | | perl -MCPAN -e 'install JavaScript' |
but it fails like so:-
| Code: |

Looks like I'm missing ljs, but I don't know how to get it!

Oops... forgot to RTFM. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I have downloaded js, and built it according to the README like so :-
| Code: |
cd /js/src
gmake -f Makefile.ref
|
which gives me a directory called Linux_All_DBG.OBJ. However, I assume I need to install the libraries I've built, and the README doesn't tell me how to do that! Any hints?
Cheers,
Jon |

I has the same problem with the missing JavaScript.pm file
Its not currently in portage at the moment, so I had to follow the same `perl -MCPAN -e shell` command line that you had done, but I didn't get the problem with the missing file, not sure why.
After I got it installed (JavaScript.pm) I had the Ask.pm file problem that is in my posting here =>

OK, I've got a further. Instrall seems to work OK now. Google came up with these steps:
| Code: | tar xfvz js-1.5-rc4.tar.gz
cd js/src
make -f Makefile.ref BUILD_OPT=1
cp js*.h /usr/include/
cd Linux_All_OPT.OBJ
cp js*.h /usr/include/
cp libjs.* /usr/lib/
ldconfig |

I installed Firefox with the java use flag enabled. Then I copied the libjs files to the location that the Perl module wants (which incidently is only wrong because of where Gentoo installs it) and then I build Javascript with cpan (install Javascript)
This works. I can give you absolute paths when I get home. Actually now that I think about it I should have just made a symbolic link....duh! |

Thanks for the info, managed to get the new tv_grab_au working finally
I ended up needing to copy all the files from '/usr/include/js/' into '/usr/lib/MozillaFirefox/include/js' and then run 'perl -MCPAN -e 'install JavaScript'' _________________ Desktop PC: AthlonXP 2700+, 1024meg DDR400, 9600xt 256meg, 8.26.18 ati drivers, nForce2, 2.6.16-gentoo-r7
