Take note at least on rehl, you have to run 'yum install perl perl-core' to get a full working perl (If I remember right).

Hi Shlomi,

Thanks. I also feel that centos/rhel perl seems brokern in terms of
dependencies issues and some others.

    The equivalents of yum in the Perl-world are cpan/CPAN.pm and
    cpanp/CPANPLUS.pm . Also see what I wrote about it here:

    * http://perl-begin.org/topics/cpan/

    * http://perl-begin.org/topics/cpan/wrappers-for-distributions/

    Note that the CentOS/RHEL/Fedora perl is suffering from several
    issues and the
    general wisdom is that you should install your own perl under a
    prefix using
    perlbrew - http://perlbrew.pl/ .
