I've got a problem installing time-hires-pm. First of all, I'll admit it--I installed Perl 5.8.0 via Fink, it seems to work fine for the most part.
When running dselect it wants to install this module, but I get the following messages:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following NEW packages will be installed:

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

As far as I can tell this module is already installed, maybe via CPAN? I tried to delete it everywhere I could find it, but it still comes up with these messages.
Any clues?
