Oh good, rt is much much easier to install onto woody (or more recent
things)

that's probably cause you didn't install all the right debian
packages.  There's an article in rtfm
(http://www.fsck.com/rtfm/article.html?id=52) that covers setting rt
up on woody. it's easy, as everything you need is prepackaged.

I would never do this. I find CPAN and debian not to play very nicely
together, CPAN has always just broken my debian perl. and really, with
the dh-make-perl package why would you muck with cpan directly?
