I can´t install Math::PAri library in perl 5.14.2. The System Operating is RedHat 5.3.
I do:
perl Makefile.PL
and I get the follow:
[root@USSD5 Math-Pari-2.010709]# perl Makefile.PL Configure
Filtered out versions too new...

I can't to solve this error....Someone can help me..

Just make life easy on yourself. Install it from EPEL.

(I checked a moment ago. There's a perl-Math-Pari package available.)

First, you do realize that version of Math::Pari you're installing is from 2006, right?? SIX YEARS OLD?. Get the latest version if you're going to install it, which is Math-Pari-2.01080605, and you can easily find it on CPAN:
http://search.cpan.org/~ilyaz/Math-Pari-2.01080605/

If you did, and you ran "perl Makefile.PL", you'd see that it now automatically fetches that piece of missing code, and compiles/runs just fine. anomie posted a good solution as well...and, since you're using RHEL 5, have you called RedHat? You're paying for support with your subscription...
