Actually, I did install it that way, and for whatever reason, it wasn't working, so I googled, and someone suggested doing it that way. I'm wondering if perhaps this is because there was a package conflict when I enabled the DAG / RPMforge repository? When I did an "rpm -qa | grep perl", all of those packages were enabled. To be sure, I did a "yum install perl-*" and grabbed everything. Still nothing, so I did it manually. (This is a test box, fortunately)
