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

Hi,

I am using RHEL6, on a system disconnected from the internet (It must remain this way)

I am trying to install some Perl RPMs, but I am getting a missing dependency for some packages (perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.8.8))

We have had to create our own repos for this, as we can't connect to the net.

However, I can't for the life of me find this package anywhere. Does anyone have any ideas?

    I believe MODULE_COMPAT is defined in the RHEL perl rpm. This command should show you your current version.

    rpm -q --provides perl | grep MODULE_COMPAT

    Check that you built the rpms on a system with the same version of RHEL perl.
