I can install the modules without problem (usually).
However, I need to manually install each dependency.

I've seen this strange thing under 2 Debian systems so I think it is not a
Debian bug.

Does this happen to you? If yes, how do you solve it?


Hi, Octavian.

Are you running cpan with root or a normal user account? Under a
non-root account, it would be advisable to install and use local::lib,
maintaining your own directory of perl modules under your home
directory. Some modules would be better installed with the distro
package manager (aptitude / apt-get), like Module::Install. In all,
Debian and Ubuntu have worked pretty well for me.

I have tried to install them using the root account, but it seems to be a good idea to install them using local::lib, because I could easier copy to another similar system.

I've seen that I can install the modules very easy with cpanp under Debian, so it is not a big issue that cpan doesn't work under this distro very well, but I will try to find more about installing the modules using local::lib.

Octavian
