Esteemed Monks,
I am working through my first attempt to putting together a web server from scratch. After several days worth of problemsinstalling stuff and getting things to work at all I finally built Apache from source, same for mod_perl and MySQL 4.0.15a.
Now I am trying to install modules. When I try to install Date::Calc I get LOTS of these errors:
Malformed UTF-8 character (unexpected non-continuation byte 0x61, imme
+diately after start byte 0xed)
at /root/.cpan/build/Date-Calc-5.3/blib/lib/Date/Calendar/Profiles.pm
+ line 2756.

<p>
Okay, it seems like something to do with UTF-8 is not installed! The Perl is v5.8.0 installed fomr the RPM supplied with RedHat 8.0.
Do I need to recompile the Perl with something else turned on? Or is it a module thing I have missed somewhere?
