   I just tried to see whether I can get a version of checkgmail running on Slitaz. When I ran, 'perl -d checkgmail' I got the following message;

   Sorry! CheckGmail can't find the following package(s) on your system. These packages are needed for CheckGmail to run.

   Gtk2::TrayIcon threads LWP::UserAgent Crypt::SSLeay

   The threads packages are special: this means you're running a version of Perl that has been built without multi-threading support. There may be a package for your distro that provides this, or you may have to rebuild Perl.

   Is there a way to get the version of perl with above modules or is it all too complicated? This is not a critical issue but if it can be done it would be great.

   Thanks

   Have you tried :
   #tazpkg get-install perl-gtk2 perl-lwp-useragent perl-net-ssleay

   There is also of course Perl's internal CPAN install function, which can help you download and install the libraries. You start it with perl -MCPAN -e shell

   @arsaber - Slitaz repos do not have these modules.

   @Trixar_za - attempted to download and install cpan. After a very long downloads and numereous attempts at install, the process failed. Error returned was

   Running make install
   Make had returned bad status, install seems impossible

   I think I will have to leave this in the too hard basket.

   @Bellard, lot more promising but still missing 'threads' and 'Gtk2-TrayIcon' modules.

   EDIT: Downloaded Gtk2-TrayIcon from CPAN and compiled but still fails to find 'threads'.

   threads

   The threads packages are special: this means you're running a version of Perl that has been built without multi-threading support. There may be a package for your distro that provides this, or you may have to rebuild Perl.

   @Bellard,

   Downloaded threads from CPAN and tried to compile and I get the following warning...

   # make test

   All tests successful.
   Files=23, Tests=1, 1 wallclock secs ( 0.14 usr 0.11 sys + 0.30 cusr 0.13 csys = 0.68 CPU)
   Result: PASS

   I noticed that the receipt file for perl 5.12.3 does have the option usethreads and wondering whether there is any difference between usethreads and useithreads options???
