Most Perl packages in Debian are named based upon the CPAN package name. Some examples: DBD::Pg -> libdbd-pg-perl Digest::MD5 -> libdigest-md5-perl and so on. There are some exceptions, but in general for a CPAN package X::Y you can try "apt-get install libx-y-perl". -- rd. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
