( #3333=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Hello Monks, I was trying to install Net::Libdnet from the CPAN Shell and it's giving me problems. From what i can tell this seems to be due to the fact that, in Ubuntu, Libdnet has been renamed to Libdumnet so as not to conflict with the DECnet library. I was wondering if anyone else had encountered this problem and/or could give me advice on correcting it. I can include the output when trying to install the module if it is requested, but I don't wish to flood the thread if I don't need to. Thank you.

UPDATE: Okay, I should have known better so here's the Output 
cpan> install Net::Libdnet
