I'm using Perl since decades and tried to use one of the databases (mysql, mariadb, sqlite) to work with Perl on Unraid.

 

When installing DBD::SQLite through cpan for example, I do get the following error:

 

cc -c  -I. -I/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/auto/DBI -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -fwrapv -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -fstack-protector-strong -I/usr/local/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -O2 -fPIC   -DVERSION=\"1.58\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.58\" -fPIC "-I/usr/lib64/perl5/CORE"  -DSQLITE_ENABLE_FTS4 -DSQLITE_ENABLE_FTS3_PARENTHESIS -DSQLITE_ENABLE_RTREE -DSQLITE_ENABLE_COLUMN_METADATA -DSQLITE_ENABLE_JSON1 -DSQLITE_ENABLE_FTS5 -DNDEBUG=1 -DHAVE_USLEEP=1 SQLite.c

I looked through everything from DevPack and NerdPack but I can't find a package with these header files. How do I get these?

 

Any help is highly appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

I would have thought that would be installed when you install gcc via Nerd Pack since is a standard C header file?

GC and GCC are installed. Must be something different. I can't find a file called types.h on my machine.

 

What additional package do I need to install?

 

Thanks.

 

I haven't tested this but I'd guess you need glibc - if you have a working config somewhere you can probably figure out which package it came from.

I think on a normal slackware install you'd be able to do something like:

grep -i types.h /var/log/packages/*

 

Of course, you could quickly build a vm and figure this out too.

Thank you very much. glibc was it - but that was not all. There was a version/compile mismatch for "as" and "sqlite". The Dev Pack showed  "installed" but I had to install sqlite and binutils again from the Dev Pack. Seems that unRAID core and Dev Pack include executables of different versions and/or compile options.
