I think i've confused my perl install. my scripts so far have been simple but i have recently discovered using some of the CPAN mods. i use scite's passer to check code before putting on the server.. worked fine up until now.
i got the DateTime mod from the ubuntu repos. then discovered CPAN shell. so i updated the module from there as the reop version was 0.35..

"perldoc perllocal" gives


       Fri Mar 20 14:48:10 2009: "Module" DateTime

       ·   "installed into: /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8"

       ·   "LINKTYPE: dynamic"

       ·   "VERSION: 0.47"

       ·   "EXE_FILES: "

but when i pass my code i get.. DateTime::Locale version 0.4 required--this is only version 0.35 at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/DateTime.pm line 46.

anyidea how to get out of this.. i imagine i need to append @INC some how.. but how do i work out what path should i remove and what should i add..??
@INC looks like this now... 

 /etc/perl
 /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8
 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8
 /usr/lib/perl5
 /usr/share/perl5
 /usr/lib/perl/5.8
 /usr/share/perl/5.8
 /usr/local/lib/site_perl

thanks in advance..
