Howdy! I can't seem to find the clues I'm clearly missing.
I'm finally getting off my duff and trying to get some stuff up and running under MacPerl (latest version), and I need some modules installed. My first hurdle was getting CPAN configured. The configuration process got as far as asking me to pick a continent, but it just sat there and spun its wheel. I did have a good load of MIRRORED.BY. Manually filling the 'urllist' with a selection of likely sites got me past that problem. It appears that I don't have Compress::Zlib; I do want to load XML::Twig which requires XML::Parser. Is there a tutorial of some sort to clue me in on how to handle this? I think I might be best served by "words of one syllable or less". :) If there is no such beast, I could be persuaded to prepare such, if I only knew empirically how to deal with the whole mess.
