| | The CPAN Frequently Asked Questions |
 | | CPAN is the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network, a large collection of Perl software and documentation. | | | Note that CPAN is also the name of a Perl module, CPAN.pm, which is used to download and install Perl software from the CPAN archive. | | | CPAN does not carry all ancient releases and patchlevels of Perl (because of the bugs we mentioned above and because they would take quite a lot of storage space). |

| | search.cpan.org: perlfaq2 - Obtaining and Learning about Perl ($Revision: 1.13 $, $Date: 2002/04/26 16:56:35 $) |
| | CPAN only has binaries for systems that are terribly hard to get free compilers for, not for Unix systems. | | | CPAN indicates the base directory of a CPAN mirror, and the rest of the path is the path from that directory to the file. | | | If you don't have a C compiler because your vendor for whatever reasons did not include one with your system, the best thing to do is grab a binary version of gcc from the net and use that to compile perl with. |

| | perlmodinstall - Installing CPAN Modules |
| | Whenever anyone creates a chunk of Perl code that they think will be useful to the world, they register as a Perl developer at http://www.cpan.org/modules/04pause.html so that they can then upload their code to the CPAN. | | | The CPAN is the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network and can be accessed at http://www.cpan.org/, and searched at http://search.cpan.org/. | | | This documentation is for people who want to download CPAN modules and install them on their own computer. |

| | perl.com: Annotating CPAN |
| | All of the above leads me to wish that, if someone were to start CPAN from scratch again, it would be a bit more strict in the structure required for distributions, especially with the filename of the distribution package. | | | The problem becomes more complicated for modules, because unfortunately, there are many known cases of modules that appear in more than one distribution. | | | The notes are public, so everyone can read and reuse them under the same terms as Perl itself (the entire note database is available as an XML dump). |

| | CPAN |
| | You are allowed to use the files of CPAN to create your own web sites and services since we are just a distributor of the files, we do not own most of them. | | | The image used may not be larger than the one used for the FUNET logo. | | | "Public mirror of CPAN" means a site listed in the SITES.html and SITES files at the top level of CPAN and also listed at the site http://mirrors.cpan.org/. |

| | CPAN/ports |
| | None of the CPAN maintainers, Perl developers or contributors, or any entities publishing this list in any media, will be liable for any damage caused by the transfer, storage, installation, or use of these distributions. | | | Note that this page is exceptional in CPAN in that we list some shareware and commercial software when it comes to Perl editors, IDEs, and SDKs. | | | But if there is a commonly known repository to get packages in that particular platform, please first prefer uploading your Perl package there one instead of CPAN, because that common repository is where the users will go first. |

| | nsPerl |
| | Each download file name contains (in order) the version of Perl, the version of the installer software, and the platform on which it was built. | | | If nsPerl is installed in a directory whose full name contains spaces (like C:\Program Files), CPAN modules can't be added to it in the usual way. | | | (It seems MakeMaker doesn't support spaces in pathnames.) CPAN modules work fine if there's no whitespace in nsPerl's pathname. |

| | The MIMEDefang HOWTO |
| | Generally, using packages provided by your distribution vendor is preferrable. | | | When some or all are not available from your vendor, modules can be installed from CPAN manually, or installation can be automated using the CPAN module or by using cpan2rpm or other similar packaging tools. | | | NOTE: Don't "make test" - it does a lot of unnecessary tests we don't need, and can potentially start so many processes that a running sendmail process will reject new connections because of high server utilization. |
