77 |
|

78 | <para><application>PDL</application> is a collection of over 90
|
---|
79 | <application>Perl</application> modules. Some of these modules require
|
---|
80 | additional libraries, packages and/or <application>Perl</application>
|
---|
81 | modules for full functionality. Listed below are the modules which require
|
---|
82 | additional software or configuration. If you don't need a particular
|
---|
83 | module's functionality, you don't need to install its dependencies. The
|
---|
84 | dependency tree for each module is listed downward, meaning you'll need to
|
---|
85 | start at the bottom of a module's tree and work up. The dependencies are
|
---|
86 | listed in the same order as they are in the
|
---|
87 | <filename>DEPENDENCIES</filename> file, found in the package source
|
---|
88 | tree.</para>
|
---|
89 |
|
---|
90 | <para>This package (and many of the dependency packages) requires a Fortran
|
---|
91 | compiler for full functionality of all the different modules. The
|
---|
92 | <command>gfortran</command> compiler installed with the current BLFS
|
---|
93 | version of <application>GCC</application> (&gcc-version;) will not work. If
|
---|
94 | you want to compile the parts of this package that require a Fortran
|
---|
95 | compiler, you'll need to install a
|
---|
96 | <application>GCC</application>-3.x.x version of Fortran. The
|
---|
97 | <application>GCC</application> developers recommend using Fortran from
|
---|
98 | <application>GCC</application>-3.4.6. You can find specific instructions
|
---|
99 | to install a <application>GCC</application>-3.4.6 compiler on the
|
---|
100 | <ulink url="http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/gcc3">BLFS
|
---|
101 | Wiki</ulink>. Alternatively, if you have a need to install
|
---|
102 | <xref linkend="gcc3"/>, you can add the Fortran compiler to the list of
|
---|
103 | compilers installed in those instructions. Don't forget to put the
|
---|
104 | directory containing the <command>{g,f}77</command> commands at the
|
---|
105 | beginning of your <envar>PATH</envar> environment variable before

351 | module is a means to interface <application>PDL</application> with the

353 | routine but it's usually faster and has support for real transforms. It works

354 | well for the types of piddles for which the library was compiled (otherwise it
