I usually avoid using cpan to update modules on SuSE to ensure an easier upgrade later and also because many times, one module will fail and you can go round in circles fixing this and that and taking a lot of time. Most of the modules are already on the DVD though they are not installed by default.just search for perl using yast and it should bring up all the perl modules After you did the install, have you tried to actually do updatedb and then use locate to determine if DateTime.pm actually now can be found in any of those listed locations? Sometimes cpan will fail to compile and thus not install the module. Noah.
