<para>The <application>Perl</application> module packages add useful
|
|
objects to the <application>Perl</application> language. Modules utilized
|
|
by packages throughout BLFS are listed here, along with their dependencies.
|
|
Most references to <application>Perl</application> modules are in the form
|
|
of Module, Module::SubName or Module::Sub::Name, however occasionally
|
|
you'll also see Module, Module-SubName or Module-Sub-Name. Most references
|
|
on this page are in the latter form, as these are the official package
|
|
names.</para>

<para>One module in particular is shown first, as this module's usefulness

warrants installation, even though it won't be required by many other

modules. The Module::Info module can tell you if a particular module is
|
|
included in, or has been installed into your <application>Perl</application>
|

installation. Additionally, Module::Info can tell you what versions are

installed and what dependencies are required for them. You can even use

Module::Info to gather dependencies of uninstalled modules.</para>

<para>The Module::Build module is a system for building, testing, and
|
|
installing <application>Perl</application> modules. It is meant to be an
|
|
alternative to ExtUtils::MakeMaker. Developers may alter the behavior of
|
|
the module through subclassing in a much more straightforward way than with
|
|
MakeMaker. It also does not require a <command>make</command> command on
|
|
your system. Most of the Module::Build code is
|
|
pure-<application>Perl</application> and written in a very cross-platform
|
|
way.</para>

<para>The Module::Build module (as well as any other

<para>The Compress::Zlib module requires the following

that provides greater flexibility and stability. With the exception of

straight currency exchange rates, all information is returned as a

context).</para>
