Put the following in a test.pl script: #!/usr/bin/perl require File::Glob; When you run the script, you will get a perl error that the script cannot find the File::Glob module. However the module file itself appears to exist where it should in /usr/lib/perl/5.14.2/File/Glob.pm. I'm not clear on why it doesn't work. Someone else reported this on the Beaglebone mailing list and ended up rebulding the module from perl CPAN instead to workaround the issue: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/beagleboard/TFhzYEIDTjI So we should find the cause of this (pod files are needed?) and fix it for good. 24947 1 sgw 2012-09-07 22:09:10 +0000 Just to verify, can you past the actual error you get? I think the real issue is that you are missing the strict.pm module. At least that's the error I get is "Can't locate strict.pm in @INC .... As you note the module appears to exist. So there is a dependency on strict inside of Glob and that is not being reflected into the packaging system. 25503 2 scott.a.garman 2012-09-21 01:32:38 +0000 Sorry for the late reply. You need to install the perl-module-strict package, and that's when you'll see the following error: root@qemux86:~# ./test.pl Can't locate loadable object for module File::Glob in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/lib/perl/site_perl/5.14.2/ /usr/lib/perl/site_perl/5.14.2 /usr/lib/perl/vendor_perl/5.14.2/ /usr/lib/perl/vendor_perl/5.14.2 /data/poky_builds/poky/build/tmp/sysroots/qemux86/usr/lib/perl/5.14.2/ /usr/lib/perl/5.14.2 /usr/local/lib/site_perl /usr/lib/perl/5.14.2 .) at ./test.pl line 4 Compilation failed in require at ./test.pl line 4.
