Answer 1

The module is not installed where Perl is looking. Before running the script, you can try using the PERL5LIB or PERLLIB to the path where the Module is installed. If you are running bash, you could put the following in your .bashrc:

export PERL5LIB=$PERL5LIB:/opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/darwin-2level

Alternatively, you could add:

use lib '/opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/darwin-2level';

in your Perl script but if you have a lot of Perl scripts, this might not be scalable.

Alternatively, you could install the module in one of the directories that is in @INC.

Or you could cheat and symbolically link the directory into one of the directories that is in @INC.
