[Ifeffit] Demeter on ubuntu 14.04

[Edmund Welter]

Dear all,
I am hitting a wall trying to install the latest Demeter version on my 
ubuntu laptop.
System: Ubuntu 14.04
Demeter: 0.9.26
perl: 5.18.2
pdl and pdl::stats from repositories. (I tried a newer versions from 
cpan, but ot no avail)
moose: initially from repositories, than vs. 2.2011  from cpan

I did follow the installation instructions on
https://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/documents/SinglePage/demeter_nonroot.html
and tried to install demeter in ~/perl5
and also the instructions in:
https://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/documents/SinglePage/installation.html
to install Demeter as sudo

Both attempts ended with the same result when I start dathena in a 
terminal the image of the goddess appears briefly and I get the 
following error messages in the terminal:
---------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------

When i try to start denv to create the nice overview of installed 
components I only get the following errors:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
[PDL->Version: 10 PDL_CORE_VERSION: 8 XS_VERSION: ] PDL::Stats::Distr 
needs to be recompiled against the newly installed PDL at 
/usr/lib/perl/5.18/DynaLoader.pm line 207.

/usr/local/lib/perl/5.18.2/Larch.pm line 288.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is insofar interesting as I got the same error about PDL when I 
tried to start dathena before I installed the pdl::stats module from 
cpan, that means when both, pdl and pdl::stats were installed from 
repositories.

Any hint would be welcome, upgrading ubuntu to a newer LTS version might 
be useful (It is absolutely possible that something is weird with this 
installation after a lot of playing around) but I am currently reluctant 
to do so, because it will for sure break other things...

Best regards,
Edmund
