Well, that worked locally... `me@office:~$ locate List/Util.pm /home/me/.cpan/build/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-7.24-adRDIa/bundled/Scalar-Lis +t-Utils/List/Util.pm /home/me/.cpan/build/Scalar-List-Utils-1.45-zv9hHr/blib/lib/List/Util. +pm /home/me/.cpan/build/Scalar-List-Utils-1.45-zv9hHr/lib/List/Util.pm /home/me/perl5/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi/List/Util.pm /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.20.2/List/Util.pm` [download] but not remotely... `fantasy@fantasy.xecu.net [~]# locate List/Util.pm -bash: locate: command not found` [download] *No matter how hysterical I get, my problems are not time sensitive.

It's 2017. A general-purpose server without "locate" installed has not been properly set up. Ask your sysadm to install it (from the package manager if there is one - on RedHat etc. the package is mlocate), run updatedb and try again. Of course, if you installed the newer List::Util on both boxes in precisely the same way then the module will be in precisely the same location. Did you look in `/home/me/perl5/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi/` on the remote server?	[reply] [d/l]

'A general-purpose server without "locate" installed has not been properly set up.' This isn't true, for various reasons. Not everyone runs a 'general purpose' server for basic hosting. Minimal packages/systems reduce potential problem surfaces and maintenance required. Regardless the topic of OPs perceived problems with their hosting provider have a long history, predating your account creation. Sane courses of action have been discussed many times and ignored.

`locate` was not helpful at work when I worked with CentOS 5 (or, 6 perhpas) for its database was not maintained enough (NFS mounts; stale database; changes in installed software, etc.). `find` was the only logical choice to locate any thing that I cared about with certainty.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

hippo, Xecu.net is set up very different from my computer. Xecu.net uses cpanel 64.0 (build 24). I use Debian 8 (codename: jessie). On Xecu.net, my home dir is `/www/fantasy`, on my computer my home dir is `/home/me`. When I install modules into my dir on Xecu.net, I use a web interface. When I install modules on my computer, I use the command line. So, nothing is the same between my Xecu.net account set up and my local set up. *No matter how hysterical I get, my problems are not time sensitive.
