Re: Installation Error of postgresql-8.1.5 with perl.

Hello Tom,
During configure I find the error in config.log file
checking for flags to link embedded Perl... Can't locate ExtUtils/Embed.pm
in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0/i386-linux-thread-multi

and when I execute the "make" command that time I find the following
errors.
