Gnome 1.[234].x not found.  Please make sure you have Gnome installed

and that gnome config is in your path.  Then re run "perl Makefile.PL".

Next I'll modify the call to WriteMakefile() to use gnome config to get the 

correct LIBS and INC settings:

WriteMakefile(

              NAME          => "Gnome::MIME",

              VERSION_FROM  => "MIME.pm",

              PREREQ_PM     => {},

              ABSTRACT_FROM => "MIME.pm",

              AUTHOR        =>  Sam Tregar  ,

              LIBS          => [ gnome config   libs   gnome ],

              INC           =>   gnome config   cflags gnome ,

             );

A rebuild shows the effect in the compilation line:

cc  c  I/usr/include  DNEED_GNOMESUPPORT_H  I/usr/lib/gnome libs/include   \

   I/usr/include/gtk 1.2  I/usr/include/glib 1.2  I/usr/lib/glib/include   \

   DXS_VERSION=\"0.01\"  fpic  I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686 linux/CORE \

  MIME.c

and the link line:
