Premetto di lavorare su una macchina Mac OS 10.7 con Perl v5.12.3.

Avrei la necessità di utilizzare di utilizzare un particolare applicativo scritto in Perl denominato RegRipper, il quale necessita del modulo Parse::Win32Registry.

Questi già lo usavo su Snow Leopard (10.6), ma ho avuto dei problemi di esecuzione sotto Lion (10.7).

codice:
$ perl rip.pl -l
Can't locate Parse/Win32Registry.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /Library/Perl/5.12/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Library/Perl/5.12 /Network/Library/Perl/5.12/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Network/Library/Perl/5.12 /Library/Perl/Updates/5.12.3 /System/Library/Perl/5.12/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/5.12 /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.12/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.12 .) at rip.pl line 18.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at rip.pl line 18.
Ho pensato quindi che era il caso di re-installarlo, ma ho avuto dei problemi d'installazione

  You might want to try
    install CPAN
    reload cpan
  to both upgrade CPAN.pm and run the new version without leaving
  the current session.

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Writing Makefile for Parse::Win32Registry

  Can't test without successful make
Running make install
  Make had returned bad status, install seems impossible
Failed during this command:

Sulla base di tale risultato ho verificato l'effettiva esistenza del file Distribution.pm, mentre il sistema diceva che non era in grado di trovarlo!
