Hello there,
I seem to run in to this problem everytime I do a CPan for perl module updates. I set CPAn up to get perl modules by using:
perl -MCPAN -e shell
and then I go through there setup for perl. I then went in to Wemin System/Virtualmin Package Updates and did a update for the Mobile theme and this is what I got back from the Virtualmin UI:
Now updating ust-virtual-server-mobile …
Installing package(s) with command yum -y install ust-virtual-server-mobile …
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile

How do I fix this?
Also another problem I am having on the same not is updating the Suggested packages that I need for perl to help Virtualmin and Webmin run I guess more smoothly. I get to that under Webmin/Other/Perl Modules/Suggested Modules. Can anyone help me out please. Eric I would like to this opportunity to thank you for posting and helping me through these tricky setup questions.
