Sometimes I really hate using cpan. It's 'help' isn't much. It's been since last october that I touched my cpan stuff, and now it's out of date. It's currently at v1.60. I wanted to upgrade, so I did a "make Bundle::CPAN", which is supposed to do a get first.
BUT, my cpan thinks that it needs to get v1.63, Can't open CPAN-1.63.tar.gz: No such file or directory Bad luck... Still failed! Can't access URL ftp://ftp.perl.org/pub/CPAN/authors/id/A/AN/ANDK/CPAN-1.63.tar.gz. Please check, if the URLs I found in your configuration file () are valid. The urllist can be edited. E.g. with 'o conf urllist push ftp://myurl/' Could not fetch authors/id/A/AN/ANDK/CPAN-1.63.tar.gz Giving up on '/home/deb/.cpan/sources/authors/id/A/AN/ANDK/CPAN-1.63.tar.gz' Note: Current database in memory was generated on Sun, 20 Oct 2002 21:52:34 GMT cpan> Well, Duh. v1.63 has been superceded by v1.70 - so how do I tell cpan to grab v1.70?? One more question - if I finally get Bundle::CPAN upgraded to the latest and greatest, will that also update my static lists on what is available on CPAN? I tried to get File::Slurp, and it wants to get an older version that no longer exists - same as the cpan bundle. I guess all I really want to do is update the file lists, but I don't know how to do that.
