The latest version seems to be 0.9.8. Also, your copy of Fedora is behind by at least two (soon to be three) releases. You may be better off installing your version of Fedora's Net::Pcap: yum install perl-net-pcap In fact, given that you are not on the bleeding edge, I would suggest using your distributions package manager to install Perl modules rather than trying to use CPAN. It will give you the following benefits: 1. all dependencies (Perl and non-Perl) will be resolved 2. the version of the Perl module is known to work with everything else on the system 3. it is possible to remove modules easily Of course, there is a drawback: you may end up with an old version that is missing the features/bugfixes you need -- Chas.
