Capitalization can be important; if not here, certainly when you use the module. > Can't call method "value" on an undefined value at > /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/IO/Uncompress/RawInflate.pm line 64. That seems quite odd. If you repeatedly get that error, I'm guessing that maybe something (the CPAN authors file?) didn't download correctly. I recommend you discard the contents of your CPAN sources directory, since that's just a download cache, and try again. The sources directory is found within your CPAN home directory, which is often named .cpan in your home directory. Of course, if you can't install that module in the automated way, you can try installing without the CPAN shell like us old timers used to do. Somebody around here probably still remembers how to run a Makefile.PL from the command line.... Or you can type "perldoc perlmodinstall" at the command line and read about it.
