How do I install Perl modules?
Posted by  Admin on


Installing PERL modules:

If the package manager in the distro you are using lacks a Perl module, you can download and build them yourself as per below:

perl -MCPAN -e "shell"

Once in the shell:
install Some::Module (in the above shell)

or using MCPAN without the shell:
perl -MCPAN -e "install 'Some::Module'"

or using cpan directly:
cpan -i 'Some::Module'
