Code:

Dear All,
I am installing perl modules (Ubuntu 8.04) using CPAN. I have installed it many times before but have never ran into this particular problem. When I run install command I receive the following message.cpan> install XML::RSSRunning install for module XML::RSS The module XML::RSS isn't available
on CPAN.  Either the module has not yet been uploaded to CPAN, or it is temporary unavailable. Please contact the author to find out more about the status. Try 'i XML::RSS'.-- Thanks

ExifTool has no dependency on XML::RSS, so it must be the
perl installation that is the problem.  It could be that your
version of ExtUtils::MakeMaker has been updated without
updating all of its dependencies.  (Just a guess, but that's
the package that handles most of the installation.)
