What is the best way to acquire CPAN modules? If I run CPAN, and actually install a module, and then later run pkgdb I receive an error message stating: Missing Origin: bsdpan-(module-name) Skip this for now? To skip it without asking in the future, please list it in HOLD_PKGS The modules seem to work correctly however. Several modules that I want, I cannot find in the FreeBSD Ports collections. Does anyone have any suggestions, or is using CPAN the only way to get Perl modules installed? Thanks! Gerard Seibert gerard-seibert@rcn.com
