Re: Bundle::CPAN still failing.

Coincidentally, I installed Kubuntu on my x86_64 laptop. And I ran sudo cpan -e 'install Bundle::CPAN' without problems. Installed OK.

Did you really run that and actually install Bundle::CPAN? Are there instructions somewhere telling you to run it like that? There's no `-e` switch to `cpan`, and the argument `'install Bundle::CPAN'` should be treated as a single argument. There isn't any module named `'install Bundle::CPAN'` so nothing happens. That is, if you're running the real `cpan` script and not some vendor modified one, in which case I'd like to see what they've done. The command you want is one of: `% sudo cpan Bundle::CPAN % sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::CPAN'` [download] -- brian d foy <brian@stonehenge.com> Subscribe to The Perl Review	[reply] [d/l] [select]

That would seem odd since Kubuntu/Xubuntu/Ubuntu should all pull from essentially the same package repositories (more or less). As I understand Ubuntu, there is only the current repository and then the next one for the Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu release coming six months down the road (as opposed to stable, testing, unstable).
