I ran into the same issue with CentOS 6.4 64bit. Also note the latest vSphere 5.0 SDK wants version 0.03 while CPAN was installing 0.02. I downloaded 0.04 and was trying to manually build it. I eventually figured it out. I think the trick was to install uuid-c++-devel via YUM. -- Mat W

Okay, thanks so much for posting this. You're wrong about the package though, the resolution is to install libuuid-devel. This will allow you to make the UUID perl module and install it. This, in turn, allows the vsphere VCLI to install. The perl module needs to require the libuuid-devel package / files, or ate least give a hint about it.

Right, I can add this requirement. After 10 years, I will release 0.05 version with all the changes made by J. Hall. Created new repository: https://github.com/lzap/cpan-uuid

Closing this. Recent UUID checks for library dependancies. Thanks!
