Re: CPAN modules not included with OS X: msg#00055

Subject: Re: CPAN modules not included with OS X
Grumble.  That is exactly what I wanted to know!  Thanks!

Does CPAN install C libraries to /usr/local/lib or somewhere else?

I could search for all new files right after a CPAN install.

Another point to remember is that some CPAN modules that depend upon C libraries already being install may complain if the compiler flags used to build that C library are different from that used to build the C code associated w/the Perl module you are installing (For example, I'm thinking of the module Net::SSLeay which requires openssl )

Many modules link to C libraries that must be installed as well. Simply
copying the Perl directory over won't get everything that is needed.

 Does anyone know why Apple chooses or not chooses to include modules?
 I really dislike installing them.  And more and more I find I need
 to.  So how would I go about pressuring Apple to include more.
