thx Shawn, I guess, it would not check which modules have newer versions available, and will install the same modules whihc were there in old PC. I install only those modules which come thru ubuntu, so that (I assume) there is some compatibility testing already done. (anD) it does not break anythign else in my PERL install. I will try it on test system first. I found another simple way, which works for me (my scripts are simple ones): I would just go thru all my scripts and see what am I 'useing' like __ use abc::def __ and then make a list of those. then go on target system and open some tool like synaptic (for ubuntu) and install all those modules. :) I will try that too. ty.

No, but you can adapt this algorithm: http://onionstand.blogspot.ca/2012/05/moving-modules-across-perlbrew.html Use this command to create the list of installed modules: $ perl -MExtUtils::Installed -E 'print "$_\n" for ExtUtils::Installed->new->modules' > /tmp/installed.list Copy installed.list to the target system, install `cpanm` and then use this commnad to install them: $ cat /tmp/installed.list | cpanm --interactive -- Just my 0.00000002 million dollars worth, Shawn Programming is as much about organization and communication as it is about coding. _Perl links_ official site : http://www.perl.org/ beginners' help : http://learn.perl.org/faq/beginners.html advance help : http://perlmonks.org/ documentation : http://perldoc.perl.org/ news : http://perlsphere.net/ repository : http://www.cpan.org/ blog : http://blogs.perl.org/ regional groups : http://www.pm.org/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
