dselect / ftp broken



Grab any Perl packages that are outstanding by FTP and then install 
those using dpkg - that should fix it.

I had the same problem when upgrading.

SH> Hi --

SH> Through some stupid mistake, I seem to have broken my dselect's ftp
SH> method.  When I select FTP in "Access", I see:

SH> [verbatim:]

SH> Can't locate loadable object for module IO in @INC (@INC contains:
SH> /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.004 /usr/lib/perl5
SH> /usr/local/lib/site_perl/i386-linux /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at
SH> /usr/lib/perl5/IO/Handle.pm line 241
SH> BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/IO/Socket.pm lin
SH> 106,
SH> BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/Net/FTP.pm line
SH> BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp/setup
SH> line 7

SH> query/setup script returned error exit status 2,
SH> Press RETURN to continue.

SH> [end verbatim]


SH> So it looks like PERL5 got screwed up, yes?

SH> What can I do to replace the proper minimal items so that dselect (a
SH> all the rest of Debian 1.3) is happy?

SH> Thank you for your help -- Sam
