None, but that's not what I said. I suspect that the configuration settings for CPAN.pm are messed up, because "yes" was answered to a configuration question that asked for a directory name. The "corruption" was introduced by human error. Reconfiguring CPAN should fix that problem. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
