Hey, I was trying to run a perl script on a Debian box and it kept complaining that I didn't have the right perl module installed (in this case the Date::Format module). Typically typically I can look through the available packages with 'apt-cache search' and find the correct debian package to install. In this case the name of the package was 'libtimedate-perl' --- which isnt obvious given all of the other packages with 'date' in them. So I was wondering if there was something out there that maps perl modules to the Debian package that provides them. Perhaps I just need to be more creative when using apt-cache. -- ---------------------------------------------------------- | /"\ john harrold | \ / ASCII ribbon campaign jmh at member.fsf.org | X against HTML mail the most useful idiot | / \ ---------------------------------------------------------- What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is brought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy? --Gandhi ---------------------------------------------------------- gpg --keyserver keys.indymedia.org --recv-key F65A739E ----------------------------------------------------------
