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.
