Didn't find a list at CPAN for installing modules. Please point me if this
query is out of place.
Since loading MLDBM-2.01, non-root, on an Apache
Cobalt Linux release 5.0 (Pacifica)
Kernel 2.2.16C27_III on an i586 running Perl 5.005_03
a few weeks ago, I've experienced inconsistent difficulties with use MLDBM
and use Storable.
Storable was in place before MLDBM-2.01 was loaded.
A 2-line script:
use lib
'/users/esickafus/tmp/MLDBM-2.01/blib/lib/lib/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Seri
alizer';
use MLDBM qw(DB_File Storable);
does not compile: "Can't locate MLDBM.pm in @INC"
even though 3 copies of MLDBM.pm exist.
So, I removed/reinstalled Storable-2.05 non-root. Installation failed. The
log follows below.
Makefile.PL produced:

make had no warnings.
