HPUX is problematic in my experience. Anything you want to do that has a standard approach on other *nix systems, has to be dealt with differently on HPUX. I don't know why you are seeing the problem you describe, but a quick google search using these parameters "installing perl modules on HPUX" pointed to some spots you may want to check out.

Based on the version of Perl that is being reported in the warning you posted, I am guessing that you are running an older version of HPUX. You might also want to talk to the sys admin (assuming it is not you) and see if there is a binary install available from one of the depots out there... . I know it is not much, but hope this little bit helps.

Good luck :-)

...the majority is always wrong, and always the last to know about it...
