My Perl environment was working well on my Macbook, until I ran a ports upgrade on Macports.

Now I get the following error when I try to run the scripts:

**************************

Can't locate Net/Telnet.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /Library/Perl/Updates/5.10.0 /System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/5.10.0 /Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Library/Perl/5.10.0 /Network/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Network/Library/Perl/5.10.0 /Network/Library/Perl /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.10.0 .) at runcmds.pl line 39. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at runcmds.pl line 39.

When I try to upgrade it (perl -MCPAN -e'shell' THEN install Net::Telnet), I get the following error

Any suggestions? Macglue ("install Mac::Glue") is up to date.
