After a couple of hours I found my way thru CPAN getting one missing
module at a time. It appears that the warning messages just point out
things you can install afterwards though. The URI and HeadParser aka
the HTML module are pretty much required. Base64 and FTP seem not to
be used for
Hi all,
Was wondering if anyone had experienced this problem before:
When specifying a directory to glob in MacOS X it malfunctions if the path
contains a space ie. /Users/sydneyshan/University of Newcastle/*
Is there any way around this without needing to replace the directory's
spaces with

Hello all,
I got a new iMac a few of weeks ago. I've been using MacPerl on a Power
Computing tower until now. I'm a bit stymied by Perl on the iMac. My
primary problem is that I don't know how to install Perl modules. This was

Easy it was (and is), but installme has its drawbacks. It doesn't
download anything for you, and it doesn't figure out prerequisites for
you.

UFS has the notion of a hard link (i.e., a duplicate directory
entry somewhere in the same file system, typically for a file).
A key characteristic of hard links is that the modes and contents
of the file are shared by the link (because all directory entries
for a file point to the same inode).

For creating droplets similar to how MacPerl did it, I use DropScript:

This is a bug in the version of CPAN that comes with perl 5.6. If a module
is in the perl core distribution and you try to install or upgrade it (it's
possible that it moved into the core in a later version than 5.6) then that
version of CPAN will grab perl to install that module. If you instead
