Cpan configuration purge?

i was finally able to get LWP through the make fixdeps on my install.
it had to time out for 1 hour over many servers before it finally
found an acceptable place to dload: 01mailrc.txt.gz

anyhow, the make died attempting to use the -j3 make option
i specified during the initial cpan inquisition.
its a dual processor so i thought that would work out well.

anyhow, now the make fixdeps fails trying to make a component
as it doesnt support the -j3 option…

i can provide more details if this doesnt make any sense.

anyhow my real question is, how do i purge the global
cpan configuration? removing .cpan doesnt seem to help
me.

best, mark

here is the error. upon trying again it displays this:

Remove /usr/lib/perl5/CPAN/Config.pm then run:

perl -MCPAN -e ‘install Bundle::CPAN’

Having the new CPAN module installed might help it anyway, but I would do
this:

rm -rf /root/.cpan/build/DBI-1.19

then this:

perl -MCPAN -e shell
force install Bundle::DBI
quit

then something like this (I always have trouble installing Msql-… the
CPAN module way, this is the ‘manual’ way):

wget http://cpan.perl.org/modules/by-module/Msql/Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2216.tar.gz
tar xzvf ~/Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2216.tar.gz
cd Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2216
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install

and this if you don’t want the source anymore

#rm -rf ./Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2216
