hi! i have been (a bit belatedly) following this thread. Paco, please run `rpm -V perl` (as root) and capture the output. if the output is, say, 10 lines or fewer, then please post it to the list; if it's longer, please stick it up on a pastebin somewhere and send us a link. my first guess as to what is wrong is that by using the CPAN shell you have clobbered some element of the system perl package, and now it is misbehaving. on a system with package management (e.g. RHEL/CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo, Solaris, *BSD, etc.) you should not use the CPAN shell ever, for any reason, at all, no matter what it says in a wiki or a README (and if you know enough to know when you can disregard that statement, more power to you :) ). -shuff -- If this were played upon a stage now, I could condemn it as an improbable fiction. - Fabian, Twelfth Night, III,v PGP 8477B706 (A92A 1F7E 6D76 16A0 BFF9 E61D AD54 0251 8477 B706)
