I have a strange error while trying to access cpan.
 I cannot figure what is wrong.
 When i execute "perl -MCPAN -e shell"
 I get
 "Cannot do `initialize' in Term::ReadLine::Gnu at /usr/share/perl/5.8/CPAN.pm 
line 105"
 I upgraded perl modules and perl to the latest in sid with still the same 
results.
 Any idea on how to fix this.
 Thanks in advance.

Have you checked which version of the lib-readline modules you have?
(This library is external to perl)

 I suggest trying the following:
 
 apt-get install libterm-readline-gnu-perl
 
 If this doesnt work, I suggest posting to one of the Perl mailing lists or 
forums, such as http://perlmonks.org
 
 Hope this helps,
 
 Ivor.
