perl libwww modules

I cannot get some of the prerequisite perl modules for libwww to compile, such as URI-1.17, and MIME-Base64-2.12 . Since libwww is dependent on those, it will not compile. Also, libnet-1.0704 failed 2 of 5 tests.

has anyone worked this out for 1.4 Darwin Kernel Version 1.4?

Thanks!

What exactly happens when you try and install MIME-base 64? I'm pretty sure I installed that one for an encoded-text sniffer meant for linux that I downloaded (32 lines of perl can do wonders...)

you could install libwww from cpan, which worked for me.

at the cl as root type in

'perl -MCPAN -e shell'

which you're prolly familar with. when you get the cpan> prompt

do a 'install libnet::Bundle' or 'install Bundle::libnet' - something like that, I am at work on call, tired cranky. if its wrong. email me. I'll update it when I get home.
