[EP-tech] New Server Net::LDAP install Problem

CAUTION: This e-mail originated outside the University of Southampton.
Hi,

This isn't strictly an EPrints problem, but this list could have seen the same thing so...

I'm reaching the end of an install of our new repository test server. It's an updated version of Ubuntu (20) and the latest version of EPrints I could get (3.4.4? Can't check right now).

Trying to install Net::LDAP and it keeps failing because it can't install a dependency: Text::Soundex.

When I attempt to install Text::Soundex I get the following in the build log (from where it looks like it goes wrong):

chmod 644 "Soundex.bs"
"/usr/bin/perl" -MExtUtils::Command::MM -e 'cp_nonempty' -- Soundex.bs blib/arch/auto/Text/Soundex/Soundex.bs 644
"/usr/bin/perl" "/usr/share/perl/5.30/ExtUtils/xsubpp"  -typemap '/usr/share/perl/5.30/ExtUtils/typemap'  Soundex.xs > Soundex.xsc
mv Soundex.xsc Soundex.c
x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc -c   -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -DDEBIAN -fwrapv -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O2 -g   -DVERSION=\"3.05\" -DXS_VERSION=\"3.05\" -fPIC "-I/usr/lib/x86_64->
/bin/sh: 1: x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc: not found
make: *** [Makefile:334: Soundex.o] Error 127

Has anybody experienced something similar? On my data repository server, which has an almost identical setup I have net::LDAP installed and Text::Soundex appears not to be installed (perl -e "use Text::Soundex"), but everything works as I would expect?

Some googling about "x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc" indicates some Python packages might be missing? I'm incredibly uncertain about this and with work for my employer I'm slightly more picky about which internet strangers I trust for direction. If any of you could nudge me in the right direction I would be really grateful.

Thanks,
James
