I installed the 2K-beta version, and had to do the following modifications:

 

Run ./configure
in the file cachecfg.pm:
change $cfg{'GS_LIB'} = q'';
to $cfg{'GS_LIB'} =
q'/usr/share/ghostscript/5.50:/usr/share/fonts:.';
change $cfg{'IMAGE_TYPES'} = q'png gif'
to $cfg{'IMAGE_TYPES'} = q'gif png';
make sure $cfg{'METADPI'} = q'180';
and that $cfg{'PK_GENERATION'} = q'1';
Also in the file l2hconf.pm
change @IMAGE_TYPES = qw(png gif);
to @IMAGE_TYPES = qw(gif png);

Run make, then make test, switch to root and make install. That worked for me! Good luck, let me know if it all came out for you all right.
