Problems running cpan_update from perl v5.6.0-RC1

[Charles Wilson]

Steve -
  I can tell you what I did to get Bundle::CPAN working (mostly) but I'm
not sure why you are seeing the particular errors below. [**** Nope. Now
I know why you're seeing *your* errors. See postscript. ****] My errors
(that forced me to the following recipe) were different, but I can't
remember them now.

1. Download, build, and install Compress-ZLib manually.
   (you know, perl Makefile.PL, make, make install)

2. Download, build, and install Archive-Tar manually.

3. Download, build, and install libnet manually
   (not necessary for you, since you're using my
   libnet RPM)

After that, I THINK Bundle::CPAN build/installed without trouble (it has
been a while). Of course, it skipped the Zlib, Tar, and libnet stuff
since I'd already done it by hand.

Good luck,
Chuck

P.S. sem.h and ipc.h are from the cygipc package. If you're using my
perl build, it was built with cygipc. Which means that you need to have
the cygipc package installed if you want to build modules -- for just
this reason; perl now expects to find all the same headers that I had
which I built it. You can get cygipc from cygutils.netpedia.net.
