MiniPAN MiniPan is a try to write a minimalistic replacement for the 'cpan' command line tool mainly for the iPhone as limited resources make it impossible to use it on that platform (cpan tries to load the whole package list into the memory, even with CPAN::SQLite installed... Currently only installation of single modules and their dependencies is supported. DEPENDENCIES Of course you need Perl installed on your iPhone already. There is a Perl 5.10.0 version for the iPhone OS 2.x in CoreDev's Cydia repository. Installation instructions can be found on their page: http://coredev.nl/ following packages are also required: - sudo - make and anything build related (build-essential under debian) - OpenSSH (for remote login) INSTALLATION To install this module, run the following commands: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install SUPPORT AND DOCUMENTATION After installing, you can find documentation for this module with the perldoc command. perldoc MiniPAN You can also look for information at: RT, CPAN's request tracker http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bugs.html?Dist=MiniPAN AnnoCPAN, Annotated CPAN documentation http://annocpan.org/dist/MiniPAN CPAN Ratings http://cpanratings.perl.org/d/MiniPAN Search CPAN http://search.cpan.org/dist/MiniPAN COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE Copyright (C) 2008 Tobias Kirschstein This program is released under the following license: BSD
