Re: announce missing modules

You could create an AutoBundle (perl -MCPAN -e autobundle) and roll that out to each machine and install all of the modules you require that way, rather than report was is missing.

Update: For further information about this see responses to perl modules replication and Mirror CPAN installed modules

Hope this helps

Thanks for the suggestion. There are lots of scripts; some run on these machines and some run on those machines. The scripts also morph over time and the list of modules changes. So the set of required modules depends on the machine and increases over time as the script changes. I could use autobundle but this is means I have to do the autobundle regularly from a configured machine. I'd rather just have the script tell me what I need to install.	[reply]
