Manual Installation of Perl Modules
***********************************


Instructions
============

If you need to install Perl modules manually, here's how it's done.
Download the module using the link given in the next section, and then
apply this magic incantation, as root:

   # tar -xzvf <module>.tar.gz
   # cd <module>
   # perl Makefile.PL
   # make
   # make test
   # make install

Note: In order to compile source code under Windows you will need to
  obtain a 'make' utility.  The **nmake** utility provided with
  Microsoft Visual C++ may be used.  As an alternative, there is a
  utility called **dmake** available from CPAN which is written
  entirely in Perl. As described in *Download Locations*, however,
  most packages already exist and are available from ActiveState or
  theory58S. We highly recommend that you install them using the ppm
  GUI available with ActiveState and to add the theory58S repository
  to your list of repositories.


Download Locations
==================

Note: Running Bugzilla on Windows requires the use of ActiveState Perl
  5.10.1 or higher. Many modules already exist in the core
  distribution of ActiveState Perl. Additional modules can be
  downloaded from http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/PPMPackages/10xx/ if you
  use Perl 5.10.1.
