I could use some assistance getting CPAN functional again. CPAN stopped working on Centos 4.2 x64, and I can no longer install modules. I did a install Bundle::CPAN and upgraded to 1.8.2, and perl was updated afterwards via yum update. The error seems related to GPG, does anyone know if 1.8.2 added new restrictions on signatures? $ sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.82) ReadLine support enabled cpan> install DBD::SQLite CPAN: Storable loaded ok Going to read /usr/share/cpan/Metadata Database was generated on Wed, 18 Jan 2006 20:10:08 GMT Running install for module DBD::SQLite Running make for M/MS/MSERGEANT/DBD-SQLite-1.11.tar.gz CPAN: Digest::SHA loaded ok CPAN: Module::Signature loaded ok WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!

Thanks for the tip on dag, but not all the modules I need are there. All arguments for and against CPAN aside, the fix is not to use PathTools 3.15. Once I upgraded to 3.16 my problem went away. Someone had a similar issue when installing BugZilla, you can follow the troubleshooting steps here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=321855, and his solution was to revert to 3.14.
