I was able to get PDL installed in our central software depot, but the Grib build is not working. It bombs out running the makefile like this:

....cpan/build/PDL-IO-Grib-2-cxqhND>/usr/local/depot/perl-5.10.1/perl-
+5.10.1/bin/perl Makefile.PL

WARNING: DIR takes a ARRAY reference not a string/number.
         Please inform the author.
WARNING: EXE_FILES takes a ARRAY reference not a string/number.
         Please inform the author.
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Can't use string ("GribView.pl") as an ARRAY ref while "strict refs" i
+n use at /usr/local/depot/perl-5.10.1/perl-5.10.1/lib/5.10.1/ExtUtils
+/MM_Unix.pm line 1370.

Here's the Makefile...

.cpan/build/PDL-IO-Grib-2-cxqhND>cat Makefile.PL
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;

WriteMakefile(
                                  NAME => 'PDL::IO::Grib',
                                  EXE_FILES => 'GribView.pl',
                                  VERSION_FROM => 'Grib.pm',
                                  DIR => 'Grib',
                                  dist => {COMPRESS => 'gzip', SUFFIX=
+> 'gz'}
);

Not sure where to go from here. ??
