Re: Module Installation Errors

If you are using the system perl, then there will probably already be a packaged version of the module you want. I'm not terribly familiar with Debian (more of a Fedora man myself) but I assume you do something with apt-get.

Hi Dave, The typical pattern in Debian is `lib.+-perl`, so e.g. `libmoose-perl` or `libmoosex-meta-typeconstraint-forcecoercion-perl`. Unforunately, no such luck for `libfilesys-diskusage-perl`, and searching the contents of the packages for `DiskUsage.pm` only reveals Sys::Statistics::Linux::DiskUsage in `libsys-statistics-linux-perl`.

Thanks for the reply, Dave. As Hauke D indicated there is no Debian package for the module in question. Anonymous nailed it though, noting that running cpan as root is not the preferred method, and that was indeed the cause of the errors I received.	[reply]
