Hi,
I'm both a Linux and Perl newbie, so please bear with me. I'm working with
Perl on Ubuntu Linux. I want to use the Date::Calc module in a Perl script.
I used the cpan command line to install it. I ran: install Date::Calc (At
least, I think I installed it. I'm not sure how to check if it actually is
installed.) At the beginning of my Perl script, I'm using: use Date::Calc
qw(:all); When I go to run it, I get the following: Can't locate
Date/Calc.pm in @INC. I tried searching for Date/Calc.pm on the file system
and it doesn't look like it's there. Also, after installing a module, do
any environment variables need to be set? Any help would be much
appreciated.

Not installed.
Why don't you try installing it again, but actually watch the output
this time.

I did watch the output. There were a couple of "NOT OK" messages, but
nothing indicated an installation failure.

FYI, CPAN will refuse to install a module if it fails even a single test
when it runs "make test". If the test suite is just being overzealous,
you can override that with "force install <module>", but in general
failed tests mean that you need to drop to a shell using "look <module>"
and read the documentation.

Uh. In general, "NOT OK" *is* an installation failure indicator...
Perhaps you should copy and paste the actual output of the CPAN
install command...
