Re^2: Test::Simple will install, but not be detected as an appropriate dependency in CPAN

It turns out that no, /root/perl5/lib/perl5 was not in my @INC I ran export PERL5LIB=/root/perl5/libe/perl5:$PERL5LIB and it appears that everything is now installing properly. However, when I try to run a perl dependent software I get the error Can't locate forks.pm in @INC (you may need to install the forks module), so it seems that point @INC to this root library does not include the modules I had already installed. I'll simply reinstall them though.

Now I seem to have shifted the problem. CPAN says forks.pm is installed and up to date, but Maker (a program that uses forks.pm) still says it can't find it. Running `locate forks.pm` returns nothing.	[reply] [d/l]

So compare shebangs (commandline, Maker), compare @INC, and figure out the difference You can always installl "forks" in a different INSTALL_BASE and tell "Maker" about it	[reply]
