Hey y'all!

So, the biggest reason I installed the Ubuntu system was so I could easily develop. I was having a heck of a timev on Windows installing CPAN packages, dealing with nmake, installing a compiler, etc. I thought that Ubuntu would be the way to go: it has most of that stuff already installed (make, perl, mysql, DBI, g++, etc.)

I really wanted this link parser, but I can't get it to install.

I set up CPAN, ran the CPAN shell via sudo, and tried

install Lingua::LinkParser

And, it fails. It can't make some code or something like that.

I tried "look", and then tried to "make" the file locally, and the compiler just pukes on me.

I'm running 10.10. I can post the compiler vomit, if it will help.

Nevermind...I found the answer here: http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=834428

Whether it works or not is a WHOLE different story.
