Courier compile fails with "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lperl"

I've tried to compile courier on a Debian system and it fails with lperl error:

Code:

$ make && make check

The configure script runs successfully, but the compiling fails.
Thanks for any info provided.

Seems that I needed to install libperl-dev package.

It needed the /usr/lib/libperl.so library which is installed by this package:

Code:

# dpkg -S /usr/lib/libperl.so
libperl-dev: /usr/lib/libperl.so
