In latest CVS HEAD and today's snapshot, building PerlMagick is no longer enabled by default. It is necessary to specify --with-perl in order to add PerlMagick. Due to problems with trying to get the PerlMagick to work consistently across OS versions and Perl versions, using --with-perl now only fully builds a static PerlMagick. A static PerlMagick is primarily useful for development testing. When GraphicsMagick is configured with --enable-shared to use shared libraries, the PerlMagick source tree is prepared, but PerlMagick is not built. For shared builds it is necessary to first build and install GraphicsMagick, and then finish building PerlMagick via the simple instructions in PerlMagick/README.txt which is basically just cd PerlMagick perl Makefile.PL make make check [ su root ] make install Please report any issues encountered.
