Hi Shmuel, You may be right about the chain… It went like this: I saw in the internet the Tie::ExtraHash might help me. I checked using “perl –MTie::ExtraHash”, and saw it isn’t installed (in my 5.18.0 installation), so I asked CPAN to install it. Where is the problem ?

And Tie::Hash is not on CPAN. Somewhere in the chain something went very wrong if you are try to make CPAN install module that it doesn't have. Shmuel.

To install that, you need to run force install Tie::ExtraHash --or-- install R/RJ/RJBS/perl-5.18.2.tar.bz2 …. And it eventually fails.

Also, AFAIK, CPAN can not ask you to upgrade perl. it handles only modules. Are you trying to install modules using other packager? Shmuel.
