Help PLEASE with perl/cpan.pm and passive ftp!



I am trying to build the gmmusic music databse application. It uses several
perl modules and includes a script that uses cpan.pm to install them.

Now, first of all, I have ver used cpan.pm before, I have only manually
installed perl modules. Second the machine in question (Debian stable) is
behind a firewall that requires all ftp tansfers to be done in passive
mode. Thisr somewhere allong the way of doing this cpan.pm decided to
rebuild me a freash perl! So now I have 5.60. installed in /usr/local..

After all of this I still can't get cpan.pm to properly install the Pg
moduel!

Help, PLEAS!
