Hi all,

 This is an interesting thread:

 http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2014-April/141871.html

 about the problems you can find building perl modules for CentOS
releases (new or old).

 I agree with John R. Pierce: cpan is very very bad tool ( in fact, I
hate it) to build perl modules for CentOS systems, breaks all other
perl modules. I need to use several perl modules in several servers in
my dept. and after some tests, I migrate to FreeBSD due to easy
install perl modules with poudriere suite.

 But, anyone knows if it is possible to build a confident devel
environment under  CentOS with some tool to build rpm's perl modules
without breaking anything in CentOS systems??

 Maybe, it is a good idea to create a CentOS Perl SIG :))

Thanks.
