Dear list,

I'm trying to use Net::SSH::Perl, but it requires the Math::GMP module. I
have installed a GMP library (required for Math::GMP) but when I try to
install Math::GMP I get an error. Here's the transcript. May someone shed
some light?

Looks like it cannot find a file called libgmp.so.10 - maybe it's not in
LD_LIBRARY_PATH or it's a dangling symbolic link.

I found this file in the installation directory of gmp-5.0.1, which is the
GMP library I had to install for Math::GMP.

Could this also mean that I didn't install the GMP library correctly? If
it is a path issue, how would I go about it?

Thanks again!

Dave

I don't know your OS or version of Perl, but if you use ActivePerl 5.10.1
under Windows, you can install Math::GMP with ppm from uwinnipeg ppm
repository at:

http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/PPMPackages/10xx/package.xml

OK, seems like it's Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 / CentOS 5. You can find a
package for Net-SSH-Perl for them on the DAG package repository:

http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/perl-Net-SSH-Perl/

You should install from it.

You should install GMP using yum: "yum install gmp-devel" or something along
these lines. But installing the perl-Net-SSH-Perl should do it for you.

Hi Octavian,

Thanks for the reply! I'll keep that in mind, I use Perl on Windows too.

And next time when posting questions like, I'll remember to include my OS
and Perl version.

Cheers,

Dave

Net::SSH::Perl is mostly unmaintained nowadays with lots of unresolved
bugs in its queue.

Better alternatives are Net::SSH2 and Net::OpenSSH.

Thank you Salva. I will try these out as I am still having problems
getting Net::SSH::Perl to work.

Hi Salvador!

I went with Net::OpenSSH, since with Net::SSH2 I had to install some
libraries. I used the CPAN shell to install it.

It's working, but just a note that I had to install IO::Pty manually.

Thanks for creating the module and for sharing!

Cheers,

Dave

Thanks for the suggestions! I got tired of installing so many modules and
libraries just to get Net::SSH::Perl working.

So I went with Net::OpenSSH, as Salvador suggested, and it's working fine.
