On OS X cpanm Image::Magick fails with
Magick.xs:60:10: fatal error: 'magick/MagickCore.h' file not found
#include < magick/MagickCore.h>
The file is present though. (That space is from me to have it display here.)
How can I tell cpanm and/or Image::Magick where to find those headers?
(IM is installed from source.)
Workaround: download Module, edit Makefile.PL (add header dir to includes), make, make install as written on the imagemagick homepage.
While the question is rather old, I still ran into this issue recently.
I was able to resolve it with new ImageMagick installed via homebrew (brew install imagemagick which installed version 6.9.5-3), then firing up cpan and installing JCRISTY/PerlMagick-6.89-1.tar.gz package.
It fails in test section. Thus I analysed what tests fails and decided to cheat a bit (I don't need all ImageMagick functions). I manually edited tests files (use look Image::Magick to get into unarchived package) – for me, it was required to completely comment out test for input.miff (reference/filter/Segment.miff) in t/filter.t and tests for MPEG read in t/mpeg/read.t. Then cpan is able to process Image::Magick finally.
I ran my own tests upon set of GIF and PNG images and these are OK. Hope this helps someone.

I'm trying to get Perl's Finance::Quote module working after MacOS upgrade to 11.4. One of the dependencies is B::Keywords. B::Keywords installation fails a test with this error:
> sudo cpan B::Keywords
[...]
Can't open /System/Library/Perl/5.30/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/keywords.h: No such file or directory at t/11keywords.t line 25
Digging around, I see that keywords.h exists on my system in this location:
/System/Volumes/Data/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.30/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/keywords.h
Is there a way to tell cpan (or cpanm, or some other installation tool) where to look for these headers? Or, any other approach to get this working would be welcome.
It seems like they removed the keywords.h from the CORE directory (relative to the path given from $Config{archlibexp}) for the system perl on macOS 10.14, see this bug report.
The reason you are not able to install B::Keywords is due to a failed test 11keywords.t see line 24. Some possible solutions:
Install the module without running the tests (sudo cpan -T B::Keywords)
Submit an issue at the GitHub issue tracker so the author of the module can fix the problem.
Install the module with perlbrew instead of using the system perl (I tested this and it worked fine here).
I refer the instructions here
What I did (on Windows):
Install fontforge through web instead of 'brew'
Install SASS through Ruby GEM
Place my-icon.svg inside src/ (of the ionicons-master)
Run the python ./builder/generate.py
I think I am very closed. Until i saw this error message:
windowsError: The system cannot find the file specified
And I think I get even closer when I saw the last post of this link
But, I don't get what it means. I downloaded the .exe but it doesn't work.
Is it the python build only meant for MAC? Has anyone managed to make this work in Windows?
When using homebrew to install graphviz, the script gets to the point of "Making install in tkstubs" and then throws the following fatal error:
In file included from tkStubLib.c:15:
/usr/include/tk.h:78:11: fatal error: 'X11/Xlib.h' file not found
#include <X11/Xlib.h>
I have installed XQuartz as X11 has been dropped in Mountain Lion, but I'm unsure if it is installed correctly. The location of Xlib.h is:
/opt/X11/include/X11/Xlib.h
There are also two symlinks to /opt/X11, they are:
/usr/X11
/usr/X11R6
Does this look like the correct setup to you? I've never dealt with X11 or XQuartz until yesterday.
Cheers.
After installing XQuartz you may add a symlink to your X11 installation folder by just entering
ln -s /opt/X11/include/X11 /usr/local/include/X11
in terminal. That will fix the problem as well without changing any ruby script.
You need to tell the tkstubs build (and possibly other bits in the package as well) to look for headers in /opt/X11/include; this is not on the standard include path.
Usually this is achieved by passing -I/opt/X11/include as an additional compiler flag, the method to do so is however dependent on the build system.
For reasonably modern configure scripts, the best approach is to pass it in the environment variable CPPFLAGS; if the package uses another build system or this doesn't work for another reason, then you need to look at the Makefile in the build directory.
You can enter in your shell before the compile/link (or brew) command:
export CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/X11/include
The export line will tell the compile/linker to look in /opt/X11/include for the X11 include files
Had the same issue and running this command on terminal
xcode-select --install
worked for me. Run this command after installing xQuartz.
If you need this to work in your CMake builds:
if(APPLE)
include_directories(AFTER "/opt/X11/include")
endif()
That worked well for me.
I got it to install by copying the x11 header file directory to the /opt/local/include directory. Probably not the best way to work around it but quick and easy.
I found this thread while trying to compile ffmpeg from source on OS X. I needed --enable-x11grab and the homebrew build does not support this option.
I had XQuartz installed already but I kept getting errors from ./configure: ERROR: Xlib not found. I thought the answers here would solve my problem, but they did not!
So, if anyone is ever in the same boat, my solution was this:
I opened up the generated config.log and found lots of errors referring to various includes and header files, including X11/Xlib.h - this is misleading. At the very bottom of the logfile was the key, pkg-config was complaining about looking for xbc.pc, and requested that it be put on the path. However, the error message that is displayed on the terminal says nothing about pkg-config or xbc!
The solution is to add to your PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable. Mine was nonexistent, so I just did export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/X11/lib/pkgconfig/ (the folder where I found xbc.pc).
I reran configure and everything worked like a charm!
TL;DR: check config.log - don't trust the terminal output!
Since the make file is looking for X11/xlib.h i.e., it is looking for X11 folder in the current directory, one way to solve this problem is to simply copy the /opt/X11/include/X11 directory to the directory that contains make file.
i'm having loads of problem in trying to install CPAN Modules. Using the cpan.exe, I try to install a module with, for example, "install Win32::IE::Mecahnize" but I end up hitting a wall. In the beginning it find dmake.EXE and is okay, but when the install finishes it says dmake.exe is NOT OK, and Dmake.exe Error code 255 , while making 'test-dynamic'.
I'm very confused as to what is happening and why its not working?? Help is much appreciated.
This is the current error I get:
dmake.EXE: Error code 255, while making 'test_dynamic'
C:\strawberry\c\bin\dmake.EXE test -- NOT OK
Running make install
make test had returned bad status, won't install without force
ABELTJE/Win32-IE-Mechanize-0.009.tar.gz : make_text NO
It's not your fault. That module doesn't work for anyone. When you run into a failure with a module, investigate it to see if other people are having problems. You can look on its CPAN Search page to see that there are no passing testers reports for that distribution. That distribution should not install without force. We cover some of this in Effective Perl Programming's section on researching modules.
Can you install other modules without a problem?
ya, well here's the thing, I have both ActivePerl and Strawberry Perl installed, is that a problem?
Shouldn't be an issue. However, you need to make sure that Strawberry Perl's distro contains the binaries and libraries you need to build and install non-text only modules. You need to make sure you're using Strawberry Perl's stuff and not ActivePerl. I recommend putting Strawberry Perl in your PATH, but not ActivePerl.
Easiest thing to do is not use CPAN, but ActivePerl's own PPM manager. ActivePerl has probably prebuilt about 90% of the CPAN modules and have them available via their PPM manager. Try that.
The latex file is giving the following error:
! LaTeX Error: File `datetime.sty' not found.
Here is the Latex code: \usepackage{datetime}
Am I missing something?
I am using Debian 3.1 Linux Machine.
I don't use Debian myself, but if I look it up, Debian contains it in the package 'texlive-latex-extra'. If you installed LaTeX via the packet-manager of debian (I think so) the command 'apt-get install texlive-latex-extra' executed as root should install you the needed file. Alternatively you can use a graphical package-manager to install the package.
If your LaTeX Distribution does not load the package automatically, you can try to install it manually according to the readme file here: http://www.ctan.org/pub/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/datetime/ Edit: http://www.ctan.org/pkg/datetime
Yes, you are missing the datetime.sty file; you are probably missing the whole package too. What system are you using for managing your (La)TeX installation ? If you tell us you may get more specific advice than I can give.
You need to get the datetime package from CTAN or one of its mirrors and install it into your local texmf tree. Your LaTeX manager will do this for you. You may also be able to configure your LaTeX manager to automatically download and install packages the first time they are requested.
