I am running Centos 6.4 and perl 5.10. I have short script which uses the DateTime module. However when I run my script I get the following error message telling me various modules cannot be located as they are not in the library path.
Can't locate Params/Validate.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/lib64/perl5/DateTime/Duration.pm line 11.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./jr_fix_western_filestore.perl line 39. All of these packages have been installed via yum. eg yum install perl-Params-Validate.x86_64 and yum install perl-DateTime.x86_64. Should the yum install not place these modules in @INC?
I have also tried to install the packages via cpan but this seems to want to download lots of dependencies first and inevitably fails.

However locate Validate.pm returns nothing
