Re^2: Can't find function in @INC

hmm did you notice that Can't locate Module.pm in @INC is not in perldiag?

The corresponding error is only called Can't locate %s

Which means searching for '@INC' wouldn't help...

Though you're right about the full message:

perl -Mdiagnostics -Mdummy
Can't locate dummy.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib
+/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/p
+erl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl
+ .).
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted (#1)
    (F) You said to do (or require, or use) a file that couldn't be
    found. Perl looks for the file in all the locations mentioned in @
+INC,
    unless the file name included the full path to the file.  Perhaps 
+you
    need to set the PERL5LIB or PERL5OPT environment variable to say w
+here
    the extra library is, or maybe the script needs to add the library
+ name
    to @INC.  Or maybe you just misspelled the name of the file.  See
    perlfunc/require and lib.

Off-topic?!? How do you figure? Its on topic to Re^2: Can't find function in @INC ... yeah the message isn't listed verbatim, thats what splain is for ... which is what amon probably used ... AfAIK its safe to assume even amon noticed those printf escapes ... perldiag says Spots that vary are denoted with a %s or other printf-style escape. Or how does splain help to find error-msgs close to Can't find function in @INC? It doesn't :) What it does show is that the error message is made up (if its not in perldiag its fake )	[reply]
