WintersMystic has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

ok, i have searched here and elsewhere and, unless i SUCK at searching, cant find a reason for my problem.

i am writing a simple, and i do mean simple with no bells and whistles, whois script for a friend. well, i had his webhost add Net::Whois to their module list. but when i run the script, i get this error msg

Can't locate Locale/Country.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/ +5.6.0/i686-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/ +i686-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) + at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/Net/Whois.pm line 225.

is this saying that i have to have them include another module? if so, what is the name of the module i need installed? yes, i am new to this, especialy modules. :D

    Yes, you need to install the Locale::Country module.
