I agree with this.
Your mail makes me see that it's better to put up a bad gift-prerequisites
package than none. I am not content with the install, currently (it is not
conform with GNU guidelines). However, people have real trouble installing
the stuff by hand. Filip, I tried to send you the stuff by mail, however, it
is too big for your mailbox :-( . I will put it up on GNU.org within the
following 2 weeks (I'm veeery busy).
> PS. Typing "help" at the CPAN prompt is also a good way to start :)
I agree with that, also.
Cheers,
Wolfgang
