[Koha] Net::Z3950::ZOOM install error no.such.host fails on OpenSUSE 11

Hello,

I too faced problems with installing this module. 

I forged ahead and installed Koha anyway, assuming that the limitations with not having this module were possibly the inability to perform Z39.50 servers or to host the installed Koha as a Z39.50 server or both, etc.

Then, later in the install, i (re-)installed some yaz-related packages, with a command like:
yum install yaz libyaz libyaz-devel

Following this, i re-tried the cpan install of the ZOOM module and it worked!

i understand that this post may not solve your problem, just sharing my own experience with the "moody" yaz and Z39.50 software.

Thanks and regards,

Ricardo,
Thanks for your reply. I appreciate that you've written a guide for
installing Koha, I would really like to utilize this program, however I'm
having a difficult time installing it.   I tried your suggestion to do a
force install.  Unfortunately it didn't work.  I am not behind a proxy, and
my firewall is not so restrictive as to prevent outgoing traffic.  Here is
the output for the attempted force:

I followed the suggestion to do a "reports

in cpan, and I found this page
http://cpantesters.perl.org/show/Net-Z3950-ZOOM.html  It seems that there
are not many installs of this package that pass according to CPAN. 

Thanks for your help.
- Andy
