There is a tool called "the CPAN shell" which automates the process of finding modules, downloading & unpacking them, checking dependencies, then building, testing, and installing everything. This is much, much easier than building everything by hand. To run this tool, you need to run this command: $ sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell or as root, simply # perl -MCPAN -e shell The first time you run it, you will be asked a series of questions. For most of these questions, the defaults are fine, but skim them over. The setup process should take around five minutes. When setup is done, you get a prompt like this: cpan> You can hit "?" for help here, or you can just plunge in with: cpan> install DateTime::HiRes This will download, build, and install DateTime::HiRes, and it will also find, download, and build any needed dependencies. -- Chris Devers -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
