installing libdbd-sqlite2-perl?

[dberger]

I'm trying to get moveable type running on the readynas (to migrate an existing blog, running 3.x of their software).

The database is in sqlite2 format so I installed libdbd-sqlite2-perl, which brought a couple additional packages along fro the ride (libdbi-perl libnet-daemon-perl libplrpc-perl)

the install seemed to go fine but subsequently running mt-check.cgi, which checks for system requirements, started returning server errors (500), and the following appeared in the error logs:

/usr/bin/perl: relocation error: /usr/lib/perl5/auto/DBI/DBI.so: undefined symbol: Perl_Gthr_key_ptr,

I removed the package (and it's dependencies) and front view seems to be happy again, but DBD:mysql, which I believe was found by said check script previously, is now not found.

So I'm guessing that there are some libraries included in the "firmware image" that aren't accurately reflected in the package database.

Can anyone here confirm or deny this, and suggest how to restore these missing libraries - preferably *without* doing a 5 second reinstall and nuking the package database?

It looks like installing perl deb's is just a bad idea - I tried to install libhtml-parser-perl, and again the install seemed fine, but the installed libraries aren't compatible with the perl interpreter:

/usr/bin/perl: relocation error: /usr/lib/perl5/auto/HTML/Parser/Parser.so: undefined symbol: Perl_Tstack_sp_ptr

so I've erased said package and basically abandoned hope of getting MovableType running on the NV+.
