Subject: CPANPLUS Makefile.PL fails
/usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL ### PLEASE NOTE ################################################### CPANPLUS will be shipped alongside CPAN.pm in the 5.10 core. Although you should *NOT* expect it to work just like CPAN.pm, there is a compatible shell available. See perldoc CPANPLUS::Shell after installation You are strongly urged to configure CPANPLUS now, since otherwise non-privileged (non-root) users may be unable to use CPANPLUS until you configure it properly. ################################################################### Manually configure CPANPLUS based on previous settings? [Y/n]: n Okay, existing settings are preserved Undefined subroutine &CPANPLUS::Backend::CODE(0x83f487c) called at lib/CPANPLUS/Backend.pm line 100.

Let me guess, you're running RedHat 9.0 with perl5.8.0 as provided by redhat? If so, they shipped a broken version of perl, i'm afraid you'll need to upgrade to another version of perl (ie, build one yourself from the sources on cpan.org) -- Jos Boumans "If superman is so smart, why does he wear underpants over his trousers?"
