Issue with installing modules in Debian Wheezy
Hi All,
I'm currently trying to set up one of my systems on Debian Wheezy and I'm
encountering a strange issue. I'm wondering if it's something I'm doing, or
if it's a bug which I should log?
When using CPAN (or even manually building and installing) modules, Perl
can't find them.
For example I've tried using this:
CPAN install "IPC::Cache"
Which responds with:
cpan[1]> install "IPC::Cache"
Reading '/root/.cpan/Metadata'
Database was generated on Sun, 23 Sep 2012 15:55:05 GMT
IPC::Cache is up to date (0.02).
But when running the script, I still cannot locate IPC::Cache in the @INC:
root@svr-beta2:~# /etc/systest/init/sys.start.pm
Can't locate IPC/Cache.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl
/usr/local/lib/perl/5.14.2 /usr/local/share/perl/5.14.2 /usr/lib/perl5
/usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.14 /usr/share/perl/5.14
/usr/local/lib/site_perl) at /etc/systest/init/sys.start.pm line 37.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /etc/systest/init/sys.start.pm line 37.
Even running the install manually for the IPC::Cache package, it results in
the same. It's as if it's not copying the files across on the 'make
install' command.

Looks good

Appending installation info to

Any advice would be welcome.
Cheers.
Steve.
