I was going though all the perl modules for blfs-8.1 and have have some
issues with two modules.
1. Scalar::List::Utils is not found by cpan. The current comments say that
this module is not needed with perl-5.26 which is, of course, in lfs-8.1.
I recommend removing this.
Update on the "not found by cpan" remark: searching for
Scalar-List-Utils (_always_ use dashes when searching cpan) the
second to fifth results all point to Scalar-List-Utils-1.48 which
is at http://search.cpan.org/~pevans/Scalar-List-Utils-1.48/
That's not the only search where cpan offers soemthing else as the
initial match. This one is sometimes known as List::Util (ISTR that
whatever first needed a newer version was looking for that), but the
longer name is the correct name for the distribution (or, in
non-perl language, for the package).
Using cpan to install uses the colons, e.g
cpan -i Archive::Zip
Just like we have in the section "(Alternate) Auto Installation of Perl
Modules."
