where does rpm look for perl modules?

[Greg_Swift at aotx.uscourts.gov]

Rpm checks the local RPM database. If you use yum, it would check loca rpm
db and configured repositories.

For your package to find that perl module, it would need to be available or
already installed via an rpm.

I don't recall off hand but I believe there is a utility that will build a
basic RPM by pulling from CPAN.

Hello  everyone:



Where does rpm look for perl  modules?



[@clubstdby.no.sohu.com Tie-IxHash-1.22]# rpm
-ivh /opt/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/dba-mysql-1.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm

error: Failed  dependencies:

        perl(Tie::IxHash) is needed  by dba-mysql-1.0.0-1.x86_64



dba-mysql-1.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm is made by myself using  rpmbuild.



Tie::IxHash has been installed by  make and make install both in site and
vendor  directories.



[@clubstdby.no.sohu.com ~]# ls  /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Tie/

IxHash.pm

[@clubstdby.no.sohu.com ~]# ls  /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/Tie/

IxHash.pm



Perl scripts in  dba-mysql-1.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm runs  normally on this
machine.



[@clubstdby.no.sohu.com ~]# uname  -a

Linux clubstdby.no.sohu.com 2.6.18-92.el5 #1 SMP Tue Apr 29 13:16:15 EDT
2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[@clubstdby.no.sohu.com ~]# cat  /etc/redhat-release

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server  release 5.2 (Tikanga)



How and where should I install  Tie::IxHash? And then
dba-mysql-1.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm  dependence check can be correct.



Thanks.
