SID-00325: Desc: in CGI Setup

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	4.3.1	Perl version:	5.10.0
Category:	CategoryInstallation	Server OS:	Debian Linux	Last update:	16 years ago

In the 'TWiki module in @INC path' section of 'CGI Setup' in the configuration settings screen, reference to 'Desc:' is made under most of the perl modules listed. example:

Desc: required for Sessions support, available from the CPAN archive.

I can't find it the CPAN archive. Could anyone clarify what Desc: is and where it can be found?

Thank you.

Discussion and Answer

Sorry for the confusion. "Desc:" stands for "description". In this context it is superfluous, we will take it out for next release.

CPAN is the repository of 3rd party Perl libraries. See HowToInstallCpanModules.
