Wrong path for Perl libraries?



Package: perl
Version: 5.005.02-2
Severity: normal

I got an  error with dpkg which I  suspect is the fault of  perl.  It seems
that Perl's path of library directories is insufficient.  The same happened
using psptools.   It may also  be the cause  of another problem  I observed
with apt-get.  Here is what I got:

# dpkg -i tetex-bin_0.9.981008-1.deb
