Topic: Help to install a perl module on my OpenWRT hardware

Hi,

I would like to install ORT/FRN perl module on my OpenWRT router, in order to have free radio network client working on my linux box, remotely installed and bridged with my lan via wireless.

This is the portal of the FRN module http://search.cpan.org/~froller/Net-FRN … Net/FRN.pm, and this is the ORN one http://orn.froller.net/trac

I used an Asus WL-500 GPv1, I compiled the last version of OpenWRT (ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT (Bleeding Edge, r31551)), and installed audio kernel modules (i cannot tested it yet, I'm waiting for usb audio card). I also installed perl and all perlbase module are available.

So I tried to follow install notes

root@OpenWrt:/etc/frn/Net-FRN-0.06# perl Makefile.PL
Have /usr/lib/perl5/5.10/Config.pm expected /Config.pm
Your perl and your Config.pm seem to have different ideas about the
architecture they are running on.
Perl thinks: [5.10]
Config says: [mipsel-linux-uclibc]
This may or may not cause problems. Please check your installation of perl
if you have problems building this extension.
Writing Makefile for Net::FRN
root@OpenWrt:/etc/frn/Net-FRN-0.06#

So I received some warning, but command successfully made a makefile. Then I tried to make it

root@OpenWrt:/etc/frn/Net-FRN-0.06# make
make: *** No rule to make target `/Config.pm', needed by `Makefile'.  Stop.

And definitely I stop here.

Can someone help me or tell me if exists an easier method to have FRN module on OpenWRT, also crosscompiling it and installing in a second time?

Thanks in advance
