I've setup rsync mirroring: /usr/bin/rsync -av --delete ftp.funet.fi::CPAN /cpan-mirror/ >/var/log/cpan-mirror.log 2>&1
The following is in my CPANPLUS/Config/System.pm file: $conf->set_conf( hosts => [ { 'path' => '/cpan-mirror', 'scheme' => 'file', 'host' => '' } ] ); Tracking access to the mirror I see installs coming from the mirror: net1#inotifywait -m -r -e create,open,delete --format '%e %f' /cpan-mirror Setting up watches. Beware: since -r was given, this may take a while! Watches established. OPEN Thread-Suspend-1.17.tar.gz OPEN CHECKSUMS OPEN CHECKSUMS Also 'x --update_source' works well. My question is about how to best programmatically issue the following CPANPLUS command sequence: 'x --update_source' 'o' 'i *' Thanks. - David -- Love feeling your best ever, all day, every day?
