Installing Geo::Proj4

[M1ke]

This isn't an issue directly with your package but I was hoping you might have some knowledge of how to resolve it anyway. I'm running Ubuntu 12.10.

When installing Geo::Proj4 via cpanm I get the following in the log:

Checking if you have ExtUtils::MakeMaker 0 ... Yes (6.57_05)

I've installed Proj4 from the source available on their trac page linked in your readme (running ./configure then make then make install) but still get this error.

Do you have any knowledge of how this could be resolved?

Better late than never... except I don't have the answer. Thinking it's a missing devel pkg for proj4 (or libproj4?) that the CPAN module depends on.

I ran into the same error (somewhat), trying to install Geo::Proj4 within "cpan", and the guess from @kbh3rd helped me. Executing :

sudo apt-get install libproj-dev

before

install Geo::Proj4 (in cpan)

worked for me
