Hi there , im not sure whether im in the right section, but because im talking about perl, i guess this is the right place :-)
I have a whole host (thousands in fact) of Solaris machines that are running different versions of perl with different module sets etc.
I wanted to know whether it was possible for me to set up my own 'internal' CPAN mirror that i can update with all 5.x modules so that i can go to each of my hosts and point it to my new CPAN repository to get updated or new modules ? (regardless if the host is running perl 5.005_03 or 5.10.0) As you can guess, my machines do not have direct access to the internet
I guess the other question would be, Can i use this internal CPAN mirror to actually upgrade perl on my system? i have a few machines that are running
It would be nice if i could get them all to the latest 5.10 perl without major hassle?
I am attempting to install a Perl Expect module via the CPAN . CPAN goes through the process but nothing happens, sample perl scripts can not find the Expect Module.

When using CPAN for the first time, a number of questions are prompted to the user, thereby halting the process. Since I am running FreeBSD I was wondering whether the inclusion of the port instead leads to the same result. So instead of having the following:

Carton::Doc::Install - Install the dependencies
SYNOPSIS
carton install [--deployment] [--path=PATH] [modules...]
DESCRIPTION
Install the dependencies for your application. This command has two modes and the behavior is slightly different.
DEVELOPMENT MODE
carton install (no arguments)
If you run "carton install" without any arguments and if cpanfile exists, carton will scan dependencies from cpanfile and install the
modules.
In either way, if you run "carton install" for the first time (i.e. carton.lock does not exist), carton will fetch all the modules
specified, resolve dependencies and install all required modules from CPAN.
If carton.lock file does exist, carton will still try to install modules specified or updated in cpanfile, but uses carton.lock for the
dependency resolution, and then cascades to CPAN.
carton will analyze all the dependencies and their version information, and it is saved into carton.lock file. It is important to add
carton.lock file into a version controlled repository and commit the changes as you update your dependencies.
DEPLOYMENT MODE
If you specify the "--deployment" command line option or the carton.lock exists and cpanfile does not exist, carton will fetch all remote
modules and use the dependencies specified in the carton.lock instead of resolving dependencies.
CONSERVATIVE UPDATE
"carton install" doesn't update the modules already installed into local library path as long as the version is satisfied.
For example, one day you install URI-1.50 from CPAN:
> carton install URI
Successfully installed URI-1.50
Few weeks later, URI module is updated to 1.51 on CPAN. If you run the "carton install URI" again:
> carton install URI
You have URI (1.50)
because you haven't specified the version number, carton won't update the module in your local library path.
WARNINGS: following commands are not implemented
If you want to update to the latest version of CPAN, you can either use "carton update" command, or specify the required version either in
your cpanfile.
> carton update URI
> cat cpanfile
requires 'URI', 1.51;
Any of those will upgrade URI to the latest one from CPAN, and the version specified in the carton.lock will be bumped.
OPTIONS --deployment
Force the deployment mode and carton will ignore cpanfile contents.
--path
Specify the path to install modules to. Defaults to local in the current directory.
