Unable to install ExifTool using CPAN

[laurent01]

Hi,

I am getting this very weird error "Don't be silly, you can't install Phil Harvey ;-)" when I want to install ExifTool using CPAN to my local::lib:

$ perl -MCPAN -Mlocal::lib -e 'CPAN::install(exiftool)'
CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.20)
Going to read '/home/u1/.cpan/Metadata'
  Database was generated on Sat, 08 Jun 2013 12:29:05 GMT
Don't be silly, you can't install Phil Harvey ;-)
CPAN: Time::HiRes loaded ok (v1.9719)

Here are the versions of cpan and perl.

$ cpan -v
/usr/bin/cpan script version 1.9, CPAN.pm version 1.9402

$ perl -ver
This is perl, v5.10.1 (*) built for x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi

I am on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.

Any help is appreciated.  Thanks.

Hi Laurent,

The message is correct, I can't be installed.

Try installing "Image::ExifTool", instead of "exiftool".  My author ID is "EXIFTOOL" on CPAN.
