I've just bought a new Mac with Leopard preinstalled, and am getting
it set up, including my Perl programs. (I've actually skipped Tiger
entirely; the old computer is on Panther.) They depend on a number
of CPAN modules, and I am having trouble getting the modules
installed. I've installed the Developer Tools, updated CPAN, and it
sort of installed Term::ProgressBar (the first module one I tried).
However, it's giving me some complaints about being unable to find
Class/MethodMaker.pm both when I try installs in CPAN and when I try
to run my test programs. Below is an excerpt. Does anyone have any
guidance? I'm not finding anything useful on the Web. Thanks your
your help.
