Are you getting a failure for installing Crypt::Curve25519? If so see https://github.com/ajgb/crypt-curve25519/pull/11 `sudo cpanm -vvv https://github.com/pyperanger/crypt-curve25519.git sudo cpanm --look Net::SSH::Perl perl Makefile.PL make make test sudo make install [exit from 'cpanm -look' by ctrl+d or 'exit'] sudo cpanm -vvv Net::SFTP` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Rather than relying on the dependency to do so go ahead and install Net::SSH::Perl first, then install Net::SFTP perhaps? The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie.	[reply]

Package dependency version requirements don't state a specific version but the minimum one supported. Actually it is very uncommon for a Perl package to require a specific version of a dependency. It is not even supported by the toolset. So, Net::SSH::Perl 2.14 should be ok. In any case, take a look too at Net::SFTP::Foreign (provides much better API) and Net::SFTP::Foreign::Compat (API compatible with Net::SFTP, but uses the `ssh` binary under the hood, instead of Net::SSH::Perl).

Even if you get it running, please contact the maintainer and ask him to load the latest version on CPAN.	[reply]
