Re: Image::Magick Error: no suitable installation target found for package Image-Magick. by tachyon (Chancellor) on Aug 03, 2004 at 13:23UTC What do I do now? The old fashioned method is to RTFS which you will find at Perl/site/lib/PPM/UI.pm. I found this file simply by greping for the error message. Here is the code in question. # Find the correct target for this package. This means matching the # LANGUAGE tag in the PPD. Basically we find out what LANGUAGE the PPD # represents, and we search through the targets looking for a subset w +hich # implement that language. If more than one target implements the lang +uage # and version, we pick the first. If none work, we fail. If the LANGUA +GE # tag is missing, or the LANGUAGE matches the given target, we use the # given target. # NOTE: because LANGUAGE is a child-node of IMPLEMENTATION, we _first_ + have to # search for an implementation that matches the target, _then_ we have + to # verify that the target supports the LANGUAGE tag. If it does, we ret +urn it, # otherwise we go on to the next target. sub choose_target { my $o = shift; for (@_) { # Load the target: my $target = PPM::UI::get_targ($_); next unless $target->ok; $target = $target->result; # Load the PPD and find a suitable implementation for this target: $o->make_complete($target); my $ppd = $o->getppd_obj($target); return $ppd unless $ppd->ok; # the package doesn't exist. my $impl = $ppd->result->find_impl($target); next unless $impl->ok; my $lang = $impl->result->language; # Older PPDs didn't have a LANGUAGE

The text says: This isError: No suitable installation target found for package Image-Magick.There is a difference between the version of perl you are running (probably5.6) and the version of perl Image Magick was compiled for (5.8).If you are in face running 5.8, then you're probably not runningActiveState - me neither. Let me know if this is the case and I'll tell youhow to tweak things to get going. When you (and I) have the new IM binaries.CheersLeeLee Goddard, BA(Hons), MSc(Sussex)http://www.LeeGodd
