Hello,
I just started to use perl (which mean I'm a neophite on this) and got
it
installed on OpenVMS 8.2-1 Itanium.
I am trying to install and get to work (http://www.stalker.com/CGPerl/)
CGP::
CLI class, which uses Digest::MD5 module.
After some reading, I decided to get the files and run the makefile
from
http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/Digest-MD5-2.36/. After fixing some small
issues
(changed a fatal error for a warning, and moving files around to get the
path
correctly) makefike ran, but I think I'm missing a step since now I'm
now
stuck in an error where the perl processor cant locate the loadable
object
module for MD5. how do I build the object module? how do I install it?
runing the makefile issues the folowing:
$ set def PERL_ROOT:[LIB.Digest]
It is not recommended to unpack a distribution into your perl_root.
$ perl makefilemd5.pl !original name was makefile.pl

Warning: I could not locate your pod2man program. As a last choice,
I will look for the file to which the logical name POD2MAN
points when MMK is invoked.

The VMS specific instructions on how to build a CPAN module
are at:
http://perldoc.perl.org/perlmodinstall.html
You could also see them locally by running:
perldoc perlmodinstall
I hope that helps.
