I have a fairly vanilla installation of OSX 10.3 with Developer tools. the MCPAN configuration script noticed the lack of the above utilities, but it did not seem to affect anything. so I concur - their absence does not appear to be fatal. on a related note: the config process asks you if you want to manually set up CPAN, or have the module config itself automatically. I ran into a lot of trouble with the auto config, so I recommend running the manual. this is true even though I answered the default to every question during the process! <shrug> who knows. regards, :tim -- timothy driscoll molvisions - molecular graphics & visualization <http://www.molvisions.com/> usa:north carolina:wake forest ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
