BTW, what is wrong with using cpan? I thought they were the most up to date of the perl modules available, but I rarely ever see anything perl related in a yum update... maybe I just missed it. <sigh>
Hello Sam: I can't answer the parent question, but I do use CPAN modules quite often. The main difference is that I always convert them to RPM first using the cpan2rpm utility. It takes a few extra steps, but I've found that it makes upgrades and troubleshooting a lot easier.
