This means that ExtUtils::Installed could not find the .packlist file for this module. If you have a custom @INC path (one you set with the env variable PERL5LIB for example), that might happen. In the latest development snapshot we've addressed some of these issues EU::I had, and maybe it also fixed your issue. Could you try it out please? The latest snapshot is here: http://search.cpan.org/~kane/CPANPLUS-0.85_09/ Thanks,
