if a module does not came with its own installation procedures, try (as root): [panda]$ mv date-class.tar.gz /tmp [panda]$ cp /tmp [panda]$ tar -zxf date-class.tar.gz [panda]$ perl Makefile.PL [panda]$ make [panda]$ make test [panda]$ make install [panda]$ make clean [panda]$ perl -MDate::Class -le 'print $INC{"Date/Class.pm"}' [panda]$ large number of CPAN modules (Class::Date happen to be one of those) are packed/distributed by creating make file with MakeMaker which can be installed by the above procedures. perldoc -q install david -- $_=q,015001450154015401570040016701570162015401440041,,*,=*|=*_,split+local$"; map{~$_&1&&{$,<<=1,[EMAIL PROTECTED]||3])=>~}}0..s~.~~g-1;*_=*#, goto=>print+eval -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
