Compiling the output from the Perl Compiler (B::C), I get “EXTERN.h: No such file or directory” If I try to compile something generated by `B::C`, $ perl -MO=C,-omyTest.c -e'print "Hello World!";' -e syntax OK And then run `gcc myTest $ gcc ./myTest.c ./myTest.c:3:10: fatal error: EXTERN.h: No such file or directory #include "EXTERN.h" ^~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. How can I resolve this?

This is an indicator that you need `libperl`


$ apt-file search EXTERN.h
libperl5.28: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.28.1/CORE/EXTERN.h


You can add that package with


$ sudo apt-get install libperl5.28


You must then add that list to your path when you invoke GCC with (`-I`),


gcc -I"/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.28.1/CORE/" -lperl ./myTest.c
