Greetings Monks:

I've been using the CPAN of late to find out what useful perl I can come up with ,and while attempting to get some Xchat scripts to function I have needed a number of modules. This situation I am facing now is rather perplexing (perl never lets you off the hook).
The following error is reported upon attempting to implement the Xmms module:
perl -MXmms -e shell
Can't load '/usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.4/auto/Xmms/Remote/Remote.so' for 
+module Xmms::Remote: /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.4/auto/Xmms/Remote/Remot

while installing the module Xmms:Remote produces:

cpan> install Xmms::Remote
CPAN: Storable loaded ok

Xmms::Remote is up to date.

What could be going on here?
As per usual this user community is the only thing that makes modules practical for my level of coding. Any help would be appreciated.
