CPANPLUS isn't involved here, so I'm reassigning this to the proper component.
Most likely the problem is that you have been using the CPAN shell. Removing
modules you installed by hand (instead of from rpm packages) will probably fix
the issue. (Note the /site_perl/ in your error message. That shouldn't be from
Fedora-supplied packages.)
In the future, if you want a module (say, "Foo::Bar"), try yum first ("yum
install 'perl(Foo::Bar)'").
Yes. Same problem occurred on another machine. CPAN and CPANPLUS worked. After running CPAN and following the suggestion to upgrade CPAN, that system also was borked, another the problem was slightly different. So , not being a perl guru, one should avoid using CPAN then. Or, at least avoid install Bundle::CPAN from the CLI, although it is unclear why then CPAN is made available the distribution. Same on x86_64. About a week ago I wanted to install a module from CPAN (Algorithm::Combinatorics). It was the first time I used the cpan module on this machine, so I answered all questions it asked me, let it update itself and install newer versions of core modules. Everything worked fine until today, during my regular "yum update" routine, I let it install several perl-related packages, can't recall which. After that, it is impossible to use any of cpan's functions, I get the following error: cpan> r Fetching with LWP: ftp://ftp.forthnet.gr/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/authors/01mailrc.txt.gz LWP failed with code[500] message[Errno architecture (x86_64-linux-thread-multi-2.6.20-1.2933.fc6xen) does not match executable architecture (x86_64-linux-thread-multi-2.6.20-1.2962.fc6xen) at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Errno.pm line 11.

(In reply to comment #3) In a situation like that, you really should just try to build a package. That can be as simple as something like this: yum install cpanspec cpanspec -v -b Algorithm::Combinatorics If that succeeds, you can install the resulting package. (It will be in ./x86_64/ in this case.) No luck. Look: # cpanspec -b -v Algorithm::Combinatorics Errno architecture (x86_64-linux-thread-multi-2.6.20-1.2933.fc6xen) does not match executable architecture (x86_64-linux-thread-multi-2.6.20-1.2962.fc6xen) at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Errno.pm line 11.

Compilation failed in require at /usr/bin/cpanspec line 199. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/cpanspec line 199. Since the yum update mentioned in this bug, my system is pretty much hosed. The symptoms with CPAN are exactly the same as reported - there is plainly a clash with the architecture. As a result not only does CPAN not work for me but the RT installation this machine is actually used for is now down as apache & RT appear to be dependent on perl modules broken by the update. FYI. I've found that editing the file: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Errno.pm line 11. And changing line 11 so that the kernel version string matches the installed kernel I can get my Perl up and working again - CPAN works and my RT system is back on line. Obviously this is not a permanent fix but at least my site is back operational. Switching from simple kernel to kernel-xen or back will bring this bug back. We need a real solution! (In reply to comment #7) > FYI. I've found that editing the file: > > /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Errno.pm line 11. You should NOT have this file. This file did NOT come from the Fedora perl package.
