Perl using Net::sftp

[Gorf]

I'm trying to write some automation scripts with Perl using the Net::SFTP module. I have tried repeatedly to get it to install via CPAN but it always fails in the tests. The other annoyance is the (what seems like) endless dependancies that I must answer "y" to to install.

Can this module be installed via apt-get or am I stuck installing it via CPAN? And if so, can someone tell me what it is called in apt?

Cheers.

Hey there,

Why not try and download the module and install it manually. Maybe that will give you better errors than CPAN does. All thought, I doubt that will make a difference, it is still worth a try.

You have to install the libgmp3-dev package. Math::GMP was not being made because "gmp.h" did not exist. You may also have to clean out the .cpan build directory for Math::GMP
