I had this problem not that long ago and it is caused by your LANG setting.
You can either put "unset LANG;" in front of the command like this: #unset LANG;perl -MCPAN -e "install Bundle::DBD::mysql" Or to make a more permanent solution you can edit /etc/sysconfig/i18n where you should change LANG="en_US.UTF-8" to LANG="en_US" and relogin. brgds Ulrik Fred Magee sagde: > Good morning. > > I am new to CPAN and was trying to install DBD::mysql and got the following errors: > > Unsuccessful stat on filename containing newline at > /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/ExtUtils/Liblist/Kid.pm line 100. > Unsuccessful stat on filename containing newline at > /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/ExtUtils/Liblist/Kid.pm line 100. > Using DBI 1.45 (for perl 5.008 on x86_64-linux-thread-multi) > installed in /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/auto/DBI/ > Writing Makefile for DBD::mysql > Makefile:49: *** missing separator.
