Broken perl 5.6.0 installation
Hi,
When I upgraded from potato to woody it seems that I have done
something wrong in that my perl installation now appears to be
broken. When I try to install a module from cpan I get this
error message:
cpan> install Net::FTP
Running make for G/GB/GBARR/libnet-1.0703.tar.gz
Can't locate object method "new" via package "LWP::UserAgent" at /usr/share/perl/5.6.0/CPAN.pm line 1979, <FIN> line 2.
I have these packages installed (sorry for possible excess
information):
dpkg-perl install
libdigest-md5-perl install
libfreedb-perl install
libhtml-parser-perl install
libhtml-tagset-perl install
libmime-base64-perl install
libnet-perl install
libnet-telnet-perl install
libperl5.6 install
libtimedate-perl install
liburi-perl install
libwww-perl install
perl install
perl-5.005 install
perl-5.005-base install
perl-5.005-debug install
perl-5.005-doc install
perl-5.005-suid install
perl-5.6 install
perl-base install
perl-debug install
perl-doc install
perl-modules install
perl-suid install
If anyone has an idea on how to overcome this I'd be
very glad since this is a rather serious problem. I'd be
equally glad if you'd cc me your answer.
Thanks,
Morten
