<!-- FIXME (I only used that so that this gets highlighted by vim ;-)
 If you have the misfortune to have to add a new module which puts a program
 into /usr/bin/, please document it at the end of the page.  'perldoc' is
 sometimes a good place to start, then for scripts look at any comments in the
 script, and if you get a package like Text::BibTeX with compiled progs and
 library, look at the comments in the code -->

    <para>The Module::Info module is quite useful for tasks other than just
    support of other modules. It can be used from the command-line to tell you

    <application>Perl</application> installation. Additionally, Module::Info
    can tell you what version of a module is installed and what dependencies
    are required for it. You can even use Module::Info to gather dependencies
    of uninstalled modules. The Module::Info module and dependencies install
    using the standard <application>Perl</application> module

    <para>The Module::Signature module is used to check and create

    the tarball, changing into the newly created directory and issuing the
    command <command>cpansign -v</command>. It will check each file's
    integrity, as well as the signature's validity. Note that some of the
    dependencies appear to be circular, however, they are only run-time
    conflicts and you should be able to fully utilize them as long as
    everything is installed. Module::Signature and the dependency modules are
    installed using the standard <application>Perl</application>

      This module implements the URI class. Objects of this class represent
      "Uniform Resource Identifier references" as specified in RFC 2396 (and
      updated by RFC 2732). A Uniform Resource Identifier is a compact string of
      characters that identifies an abstract or physical resource. A Uniform
      Resource Identifier can be further classified as either a Uniform Resource
      Locator (URL) or a Uniform Resource Name (URN). The distinction between
      URL and URN does not matter to the URI class interface. A "URI-reference"
      is a URI that may have additional information attached in the form of a
      fragment identifier. This module uses the standard
      <xref linkend="perl-standard-install"/>.

    <title>(Alternate) Auto Installation of Perl Modules.</title>

    <para>There is an alternate way of installing the modules using the
    <command>cpan</command> shell <command>install</command> command. The
    command automatically downloads the source from the CPAN archive, extracts
    it, runs the compilation, testing and installation commands mentioned
    above, and removes the build source tree. You may still need to install
    dependent library packages before running the automated installation
    method.</para>

    <para>The first time you run <command>cpan</command>, you'll be prompted
    to enter some information regarding download locations and methods. This
    information is retained in files located in
    <filename class='directory'>~/.cpan</filename>. Start the
    <command>cpan</command> shell by issuing '<command>cpan</command>' as the
    <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user. Any module may now be
    installed from the
    <emphasis role='underlined'><prompt>cpan&gt;&nbsp;</prompt></emphasis>
    prompt with the command:</para>

<screen role="root"><userinput>install <replaceable>&lt;Module::Name&gt;</replaceable></userinput></screen>

    <para>For additional commands and help, issue '<command>help</command>'
    from the
    <emphasis role='underlined'><prompt>cpan&gt;&nbsp;</prompt></emphasis>
    prompt.</para>

    <para>Alternatively, for scripted or non-interactive installations, use the
    following syntax as the
    <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user to install one or more
    modules:</para>

<screen role="root"><userinput>cpan -i <replaceable>&lt;Module1::Name&gt; &lt;Module2::Name&gt;</replaceable></userinput></screen>
