I'm attempting to install RequestTracker on CentOS 6.5. Running "make testdeps" as recommended by RT's installation guide, I'm presented with lists of missing Perl modules.
One of these lines reads:
Encode >= 2.39 ...MISSING
Now, "yum whatprovides '*/Encode.pm' " informs me that that module is part of the core Perl distribution, and is installed on my system. Opening the file itself reveals:
# $Id: Encode.pm,v 2.35 2009/07/13 00:49:38 dankogai Exp $
so I know that I have version 2.35 of that module installed, and obviously that's < 2.39. So I need to get 2.39 installed.
What is the correct way to do this on CentOS? The last time I had to do anything like this, it was on a Debian box, I went through the process recommended by the guys in #perl, and was left with a broken system that was a real joy to piece back together...
