Re: [tlug] What is the easiest way to install a perl module?

[Jake Morrison <jake_morrison@example.com>]

Tony,

The earlier message indicates that perl can't load the
binary (C) part of the HTML::Parser module. That indicates
that there are problems with the HTML::Parser installation
(or the perl installation).  Is there an RPM for HTML::Parser 
for RedHat? If so, you can reinstall. 

The CPAN install message below indicates some problem with your
gcc installation. Perhaps things have become corrupt under 
/usr/lib, and that is affecting both gcc and perl. 

You might try compiling a simple C program to see.
