-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm have a heck of a time with apt-get following a manual install of perl-5.6.1. Following is a transcript of the errors. As you can see, /usr/share/perl5 is included in @INC (and I've verified that DebianNet.pm exists in /usr/share/perl5).
Any advise will be greatly appreciated. calypso:/home/stephen# apt-get upgrade Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree...
