Hi,
I just used RPMforge package perl-Mail-Sender, and am looking at the perl cpan site for info, anyone got a simple way to determine if the module is working properly?
I am trying to use the cpan info, but it's a bit cryptic (as perl is wont to be).
-it says to use this:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use ExtUtils::Installed; my $instmod = ExtUtils::Installed->new(); foreach my $module ($instmod->modules()) { my $version = $instmod->version($module) || "???"; print "$module -- $version\n"; }
but all I get is:
Perl -- 5.8.5
which seems to indicate doing a
wget http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/perl-Mail-Sender/perl-Mail-Sender-0.8.13-... rpm -ivh perl-Mail-Sender-0.8.13-1.el4.rf.noarch.rpm
is either working and thie script above just cant see it, or the module is installed and requires some follow up. Both of these are just theoretical.
Any input from the wise listers other than "read all of cpan since you have a million hours free time".
perl -MCPAN -e 'install Mail::Sender' simply hangs on the FTP transaction, thus the reason I did this from RPMforge instead.
