Ok, I just tried that. Did not work. USB.pm did not get installed, and when I run "cpan Device::USB", I get a ton of error messages - here are the first few lines:
USB.xs:6:17: error: usb.h: No such file or directory
USB.xs: In function 'libusb_get_busses':
USB.xs:32: warning: return makes pointer from integer without a cast
USB.xs: In function 'libusb_open':
USB.xs:37: warning: return makes pointer from integer without a cast
USB.xs: In function 'libusb_close':
USB.xs:42: error: 'usb_dev_handle' undeclared (first use in this funct
+ion)
It seems the reason for the error needs to be addressed instead of suppressed.
What could be causing the failure to install? How to make it install w/o using force?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
