    I'd love to make a suggestion on how to fix your problem. But you gave so little information, there's really nothing I can do, other than offer my sympathy.

    When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like your thumb.

      now i run opensuse 13.1 - but it failed so many times: see my trials to install mozrepl and Mechanize FireFox on a opensuse 12.3


      well it failed a year ago: see full stuff - see here at this link http://pastebin.de/34952


      btw - the next time i will gather even more information i will try to capture the full stuff - and later tonight i will let you know more: with the actuall issues.


      Question can' t i create a CD that contains Perl, Mozilla and Mozrepl.


      Note - if i have issues over issues -wiht installation on a machine. Isn this the way to go!?

        You may want to look through the questions (and especially the answers) of Perlbeginner1 who had very similar problems as you have.

        Basically, your problem is with installing Mozrepl first. I recommend you force-install it.

    Ah Perlbeginner1, it's yet another thread on installing this one module. Dear reader, please consider for a moment the dozens of threads over many years Perlbeginner1 has posted here and as dilbertone over on the OpenSuse forum (and IIRC some threads on SO someone else links to elsewhere) regarding the installation of this one module. A great many people, including the modules author have taken the time to guide them through installation, even though it would seem that they continually ignore the installation instructions.

    If you're not bored by this fiasco and are still reading, consider the fact that they did have this module installed at various points, have spammed members of this forum via /msg, seem to be interested in spamming cpan authors. In fact their entire goal seems like an attempt to automate the scraping of contact details from websites, likely against the terms of use.

    Dear reader, consider spending your time more wisely than investing it in helping someone who has displayed no interest in learning, reading advice/documentation, their previous threads. Instead check out http://rt.cpan.org/Public (probably best to skip to the last page first) and see if there are tickets you can provide a patch for.
