[MacPerl] No luck with charting modules

[Matt Morse <matt@apple.com>]

I'm relatively new to MacPerl, so I'm probably doing something dumb, but...

I'm trying to produce pie chart GIF files based on data extracted by my script. I tried the example code that accompanies GD.pm, and got a nice red ellipse.  Before deciding to code the pie-chart logic myself, I took a look at CPAN to see if it was already there.  I found the Chart-0.94 and GIFgraph modules.

I installed them and tried a couple simple tests, and I always get errors of this sort:

	# GIFgraph/pie.pm did not return a true value.
	File 'Madrid HD:Desktop Folder:GIFgraphTest'; Line 4
	# BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

This sort of error happens with tests of either the Chart or GIGgraph functionality, so I assume I didn't install the modules correctly.  I've looked at Extensibility chapter in Chris and Vicki's book (which I can't wait to buy!), but don't see what I've done wrong.

Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Matt
