Imlib2 Module install failure problem

Dear Users

I work on debian testing with perl 5.8.8. If I try to install the module
Image::Imlib2 to install (perl -MCPAN -e shell / install Image::Imlib2)
then after a few downloads, I see this error-message:

-- snip --

Warning: this distribution contains XS files, but Module::Build is not
configured with C_support at
/usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/Module/Build/Base.pm line 1128.
Checking prerequisites...
Looks good

Creating new 'Build' script for 'Image-Imlib2' version '1.12'
CPAN: YAML loaded ok
/usr/bin/perl Build --makefile_env_macros 1
lib/Image/Imlib2.pm -> blib/lib/Image/Imlib2.pm

/usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/Module/Build/Base.pm line 3734.
make: *** [all] Fehler 2
/usr/bin/make -- NOT OK
Running make test
Can't test without successful make
Running make install
make had returned bad status, install seems impossible
Failed during this command:
LBROCARD/Image-Imlib2-1.12.tar.gz : make NO

-------------

Does anyone have any idea, what the problem could be? And how to solve
this? Thanks a lot for all help and ideas...

Greetings Raphael

I hit this before. You need to reinstall Module::Build and build
it with C_support, so it can build xs files. IIRC it will prompt you
for a y/n as you build it.

Thanks for your tip, but how can i reinstall this module? in the
perl-shell show the command "help" only install etc, but nothing to
reinstall. And if I choose install, then it says: it is always on the
newest version...

Sorry this question. :-(

Thanks a lot!

Go to cpan and download it, and build it yourself.

Open your CPAN shell, then execute the command look "look Image::Imlib2".
Then 'perl Makefile.PL; make; make test; make install'.
