问题
I am trying to install the Perl module Font::FreeType on a CentOS linux box using cpan. I run sudo cpan and inside the cpan shell I run install Font::FreeType. However make fails as follows:
Writing Makefile for Font::FreeType
cp lib/Font/FreeType.pm blib/lib/Font/FreeType.pm

I have googled but can't seem to find any advice on how to solve this issue. I have a feeling something may be corupted with cpane, because when I went to check my version, I was surprised:
# sudo cpan --version
/usr/bin/cpan version [unknown] calling Getopt::Std::getopts (version 1.05 [paranoid]),
running under Perl version 5.8.8.

See http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=Font-FreeType, the RT queue has patches you can apply to make the module build correctly.
Ether and Cfreak were guessing wrong, it's simply a bug due to bitrot in Font::FreeType.

It looks like you don't have the freetype development package installed. On the command line try:
yum install freetype-devel
Let that install and then rerun the install for your perl module. (you man need to do clean Font::Freetype first)
回答3:
You can always reinstall cpan either by using itself (sudo cpan CPAN), or by manually downloading the CPAN distribution and following the build instructions.
However, generally when you get C-ish compile errors from a CPAN installation, that suggests you might be missing an underlying library. Font::FreeType uses the FreeType2 library; did you install that first? (Is it in /usr/lib/?)
