 Bah. I wanted to install "umodpack" for installing unreal tournament
packages. It needs perl, and a few packages.

 So, I did;

cpan> install Data::Dumper
Running make for G/GS/GSAR/perl-5.6.1.tar.gz

Trying with "/usr/bin/lynx -source" to get
    ftp://ftp.perl.org/pub/CPAN/authors/id/G/GS/GSAR/perl-5.6.1.tar.gz

System call "/usr/bin/lynx -source
'ftp://ftp.perl.org/pub/CPAN/authors/id/G/GS/GSAR/perl-5.6.1.tar.gz' >
/root/.cpan/sources/authors/id/G/GS/GSAR/perl-5.6.1.tar"
returned status 0 (wstat 2)
Warning: expected file
[/root/.cpan/sources/authors/id/G/GS/GSAR/perl-5.6.1.tar.gz] doesn't exist

 You'll notice the first thing it did was download & install perl-5.6.1
first. Is there anyway I can get it to stop that ?

Kate
