Compiling with Perl Support [Solved]

I have fixed this problem. The docs should say that:

--prefix=BASEDIR must be specified in order for the --with-perl directive to
work. Otherwise it will fail.

Sorry....

I am trying to build Postgres 6.3.2 on Linux. I would like to build using the
"./configure --with-perl" directive.

The docs say:
---------------------------------------------------------------
--with-perl        Enables the perl interface.  Note that this
                   requires an installed version of postgreSQL.
---------------------------------------------------------------


So when I exectute the "./configure --with-perl" and configure finishes, I get
the following:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
checking setting USE_PERL... enabled
configure: warning: perl support disabled; postgres not previously installed
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

So my question is: why is perl support being disabled when I asked to enable it.
I already have Postgres 6.3.2 running without the perl support compiled in. I
don't quite understand this one and I have read thru the docs as well as scanned
the mailing list archives.

Thanks in advance!
