My first, and perhaps naive thought: why not just go through and manually install each module that your newly-corrupted CPAN bitches about? That is, do things the bad old way, with:<br><br> * <download module><br>
* perl Makefile.PL<br>
* make<br> * make test<br> * sudo make install</blockquote><div><br>Yup. I've got it fixed. (but now I have to do a 'cpan -i xxx' rather than 'cpan install xxx')<br><br>The hard part was trying to figure out what I needed to re-install.<br>
It turns out it was only one module, but it was dependant on another<br>which was dependant... Anyway, it was only three in total.<br><br>Thanks.<br><br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
