Module installation issues.

Hi All. I am using Perl5.12 under Lion. I am finding that I cannot install term::screen or Cursres. I get a pile of compiling errors. So what modules should I use to clear the screen in Perl under MAC Lion? On this topic. I am trying to build a menu. I was wondering how difficult is it to crea

Re: Perl Module Installation

MacOSX has the modules installed in "Library/Perl/darwin-thread-multi-2level". Since my development is to use #!/usr/bin/perl, this is the default library location and is where I have installed DBI.pm This output should tell you what happens on MacOSX (my version is 10.4.7) with perl perl -V

I much prefer telling the System Administrators to install the Perl modules I need, wherever they choose as long as I can access them. Then I can conveniently forget that I know how to spell CPAN. -jeff lowrey

Re: Perl Module Installation

There are other issues in the MacOS X for manual installation or modules such as where the modules are install. The manual method may put them in /usr/local instead of in /Library. Be careful. 'sfunny. I actually prefer to load my machine-wide modules in /usr/ local. Maybe it's just the w

Sorry, maybe my phrasing was misleading. Obviously I read the error and understood what Permission Denied means but having checked that my account was admin and this being the first module I have ever installed I was not sure what to do to get access. Rather that writing "Does that make any

I'm a little reluctant to even ask, because I'm sure these questions get asked very often here, but I have a problem with installing a module, HTML::Parser. I have Panther, I have Dev Tools, Perl 5.8.0, I tried using CPAN and manually, and it fails every time. I won't post the whole thing but
