well, first of all it's libcompress-zlib-perl (and it's Compress::Zlib that can't be found). The question commonly asked is whether you might have two versions of Perl installed. Which path to perl is contained in the #!-line of BackupPC_dump? Using that path, what error message does /path/to/perl -MCompress::Zlib -e 1 give you? It *should* give no error message at all, but then you wouldn't be getting your error. If it does give an error, it should list which paths in @INC were searched. Is /usr/lib/perl5 among them? Why not? :) Permissions *should really* be setup correctly by the Ubuntu package ... In case your Ubuntu 6.10 package is different from mine (or for reference), you can check which files it includes with 'dpkg -L libcompress-zlib-perl'.
