Cool :-)

Basically I want to have perl as though I had installed it on say a fedora or ubuntu workstation, so I can learn as much as I can. So what should I be installing?
The perl-base package is quite minimai, as its name implies. To start with, install perl-modules which contains the rest of the vanilla Perl distribution and should be enough to get you through the llama book.
