Just a note. If you do it from CPAN rpm will not know about it. I have taken to dling the tar ball of a module and using cpanflute to build perl module rpms and installing them since it is WAY easiyer for me to remember what I have done to a box with rpm. BTW cpan flute is not in the normal execution path. is is buried in /usr/lib/rpm/ [root@bretsony RPMS]# locate cpanflute /usr/lib/rpm/cpanflute /usr/lib/rpm/cpanflute2 Very handy tool IMNSHO Bret -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
