Hi All,
I have perl 5.18 and am having problems installing WWW::Mechanize. The issue is documented:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=762259 and here https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/www-mechanize-commits/mu0hboVGNTc but I don't know of a workaround. Is there an existing solution? Below is output when trying to install using cpan.
many thanks!
