That trick may not work for every module, but most have a package variable like that giving the version number. Of course, printing the version number doesn't prove that the module is _correctly_ installed, although it's a big step in the right direction. > When I tried to perl -e "use Net::SSH::Perl" it showed no error > but perl -MNet::SSH::Perl -e 'print $Net::SSH::Perl::VERSION' was > unable to print the version . It seems that that module is immune to your trick. That doesn't mean that it's not installed, though. > I havent tried using the module in actuall program yet.

The module and its prerequisites are fully and properly installed if and only if all of the tests pass. You can generally find the test scripts in a directory named t at the top of the module distribution. If it passed all tests before you installed it, it should still pass all tests now. Using the test scripts is the One True Way to find out whether your modules are properly installed.
