[Ifeffit] Installation troubles on OS X

[Bradley Roberts]

I've spent the past few days going through the backlogs of this list 
and have been able to solve many problems so far.  However, I've hit 
a point where I don't see a record of this problem/solution and am 
hoping someone can help.  I am able to load ifeffit and execute 
commands, however when I try to load any of the ancillary programs 
there are failures (see printout below).  As per previous posts, I've 
installed and updated g77 via fink, as well as tk and tk::pod via 
cpan.  I also had to install LWP via cpan before I could get ifeffit 
to run.  From the install notes I see that ifeffit's intall program 
trashes the LWP directory in perl, so I'm curious if I've caused this 
problem myself (and if so, how do I fix it?).  Secifically, the 
ifeffit.pm and Tk/Pod.pm files cannot be found anywhere in the @INC 
directories.  Also, running the locate command I cannot find the 
files on the drive anywhere else.

Additionally, I tried to download and re-install ifeffit from the 
disk image and it cannot install - the error says "you cannot 
continue. there is nothing to install."

My setup is:
PB 15" G4
OS X 10.4.4
ifeffit 1.2.8
perl 5.8.6
fink and cpan selfupdated to the latest via cvs
