That's just really beyond me. Only root can then delete that tmp
directory. What's going on? (I've had no similar problem installing a
whole host of other modules via CPAN, including Bundle::CPAN)
Ah, the problem is that inside the tmp-16218 directory a
Math-Calculus-Expression-0.2.2 directory is created but that directory
does not have execute permissions. Presumably that is it's state inside
the .tar.gz, and also explains why CPAN hasn't indexed it.
Can the author fix this problem, or failing that, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I think I already came across this problem in the past and reported it
to the author, so somone @cpan may have to step in.
Cheers,
Sendu.
