I typed
o conf prerequisites_policy follow
o conf commit
after launching cpan
Now i tried
cpan> install PDF::OCR2
The following is some of the output i received..
make: *** Makefile Error 1
LEOCHARRE/PDF-OCR2-1.20.tar.gz
/usr/bin/make -- NOT OK
Warning (usually harmless): 'YAML' not installed, will not
store persistent state
Running make test
Can't test without successful make
Running make install
Make had returned bad status, install seems impossible
Could not read '/root/.cpan/build/Image-OCR-Tesseract-1.24-
HfZnDG/META.yml'. Falling back to other methods to determine prerequisites
Failed during this command:
LEOCHARRE/LEOCHARRE-Dir-1.07.tar.gz : make NO
ADAMK/Test-Script-1.07.tar.gz :
writemakefile NO '/usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL' returned status 65280
ADAMK/File-Which-1.09.tar.gz : make NO
this is the some of the output...
