Hi,
after installing Perl from source I again tried to ./bootsrap Openbox
from source on my beaglebone.
For this I had to install a couple of additonal modules. Which works
find until I installed File::Glob.
This module was not found by perl regardless whether it was installed
via opkg or from source / cpan.
I am a little clue less at this point, since the same module works
on my PC without question.
What do I have to change to make this working?
Best regards,
mcc
Hi,
For what it’s worth, File::Glob seems to have installed OK on my Beaglebone (after installing Perl from source).
I just tried installing it from cpan, and here is the output:
cpan[1]> install File::Glob

New CPAN.pm version (v1.9800) available.
[Currently running version is v1.960001]
You might want to try
install CPAN
reload cpan
to both upgrade CPAN.pm and run the new version without leaving
the current session.

File::Glob is up to date (1.13).
I know next-to-nothing about Perl, and actually use Webmin to install Perl modules (and Webmin is the only Perl code that I regularly use). Webmin has its own pretty slick interface for finding and installing Perl modules. I wonder if it reconfigured cpan, since I don’t recall setting “cpan.netnitco” as my repository.
If there is anything you’d like me to check about my Perl configuration, let me know.
Dan.
