This looks like your primary error; you're missing a dependency.

Try the command

to find objects with matching identifiers.

Perhaps CPAN modules are case sensitive? Want is different from want in this case...

It looks like I already have Want installed.


cpan[6]> install Want
Want is up to date (0.12).
