Your post makes me very happy to know I wasn't crazy: http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=918414 This is a pain in the ass and I don't know if it's a FBSD CPAN problem or a CPAN dependency problem but it does happen, and it's really annoying. I don't have a fix but a workaround. It will always hang on the same test, so just ^C and "look" into the module. remove the test and go back to the cpan shell. It won't bother you again for the whole CPAN session. -- Alejandro _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
