Can't locate loadable object for module in @INC

[fabiogasta]

Hi,
I wrote my own module and I'm trying to install it on my new desktop

>uname -a
Linux 2.6.23.14-107.fc8 #1 SMP Mon Jan 14 22:07:11 EST 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I have set up my PERL5 environment variable to point to directories where a module (PGPLOT.pm) I need is installed

>echo $PERL5LIB
/soft/Xchan/lib:/soft/headas-6.4/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/perl:/usr/local/lib/perl:/soft/filltools/filltools04.4/lib/Linux-x86_64/perl

>locate PGPLOT.pm
/soft/filltools/filltools04.4/lib/Linux-x86_64/perl/PGPLOT.pm
/soft/filltools/filltools04.4/lib/Linux-x86_64/perl/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/PGPLOT.pm
/soft/filltools/filltools04.4/lib/src/perl/pgplot-perl/PGPLOT-2.18/PGPLOT.pm
/soft/headas-6.4/tcltk/PGPLOT-perl/PGPLOT.pm
/usr/local/lib/perl/PGPLOT.pm


but then when I'm trying to install my module which uses PGPLOT I get

Does your [tt]PGPLOT.pm[/tt] declare which package it is? You need to have this in the module code: [tt]package PGPLOT;[/tt]

Hi,

thanks for your answer.
Yes it does, at the beginning of the module. PGPLOT is in CPAN and it is well tested. There must be something wrong in my way of calling it.
