Hi,

In a cargo-cult programming moment several years ago I decided it was a good idea to install stuff from CPAN to an NFS share int the following way:

perl -MCPAN -Mlocal::lib=/cm/shared/apps/perl5 -e 'CPAN::install(Acme::Bleach)'

The system Perl is 5.10. However, after fiddling around with 5.20 installed via RedHat's Software Collections, I seem to have borked some of the modules on the NFS share and am getting errors like:

Can't load '/cm/shared/apps/perl5/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/
+auto/PadWalker/PadWalker.so' for module PadWalker: libperl.so.rh-perl
+520-5.20: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory a
+t /usr/lib64/perl5/DynaLoader.pm line 200.
 at /cm/shared/apps/perl5/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/Devel/Ca
+ller.pm line 5.

My assumption is that I need to force a reinstall of the affected modules on the NFS share. How would I do this with some variant of the method used to install the modules or some other way?

Thanks,

loris
