Net::SSH::Perl, install help needed

[generic_1]

I am having problems getting Net::SSH:Perl to install and work under HPUX. One of the reasons it is failing is that I can not get the Math Pari Module to install which depends on the Math Pari libraries. I have tried to let CPAN 1.65 install the modules and dependencies and it fails. I have tried to compile various versions of the Math Pari libraries with no luck, which is probably the root of my problem. I was wondering if anyone has a depot or has experience getting this module up and running on HPUX. Also, I am running perl 5.8. Thanks

The following writeup is for Win32 but I expect the tips apply to HPUX too.

Also the following on a Sun:

From the looks of it the Pari module needs some major work so I wouldn't feel too bad about not being able to get it to run.

It will run under HPUX. I got Math::Pari to work by placing the perl module inside the Pari source code directory. It has troubles finding it otherwise. First I
ran Configure -a on the Pari source and set it to hppa, static, and X11, then accepted the rest of the defaults. I did not Compile. I then ran perl with a perl Makefile.PL machine=port. In some cases during make you make get a complaint about the -O option. You could add this to the makefile options. Once you have successfully built Math::Pari CPAN 1.65 seems pretty happy at getting the rest of the modules for Net::SSH::Perl. I found there were a couple of modules I ended up having to manually install. I have installed this under Linux and gotten it to work as well if anyone was curious.

hi here is this link to download the hpux 5.6.1 .depot file.

http://www.software.hp.com/cgi-bin/swdepot_parser.cgi/cgi/displayProducts.pl?group_type=search&group_name=perl&search_free=1&search_trial=1&search_buy=1

just scroll down or do a find on the webpage for perl. Its free.

Here is the link to download HPUX secure shell.

Hope that helps

Hi again
I read your question wrong.
Here is the link to the porting center.

Do a seach for what you are looking for and maybe it will be out there.

Have you tried installing it directly via, perl -MCPAN -e shell
install Math::Pari

I did get it to compile, but there where allot of dependencies :) and issues. CPAN did not work which is why I was working with it manually. Thanks for everyones help though.
