Author How to install PDL::Slatec

I'm repeating the install of PDL and PDL::Slatec on a second machine, after
the passage of several months. PDL 2.4.1 installed without complaint on top
of Perl 5.8.0, but when I try -
perl -MCPAN -e 'install PDL::Slatec'
it says it can't find it. But when I try 'i PDL::Slatec' in a shell, it
says this:
perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan> i PDL::Slatec
CPAN: Storable loaded ok
Going to read /root/.cpan/Metadata
Database was generated on Thu, 30 Sep 2004 10:06:57 GMT
Strange distribution name [PDL::Slatec]
Module id = PDL::Slatec
DESCRIPTION Interface to slatec (linpack+eispack) lib.
CPAN_USERID PERLDL (The Perl Data Language Mailing List
<perldl@jach.hawaii.edu> )
CPAN_VERSION undef
CPAN_FILE Contact Author The Perl Data Language
Mailing List <perldl@jach.hawaii.edu>
DSLI_STATUS amof (alpha,mailing-list,other,functions)
INST_FILE (not installed)

perldl@jach.hawaii.edu doesn't respond when I try to subscribe. Does any
one have a suggestion for getting PDL::Slatec installed on RHEL/AS 3.0, Perl
5.8.0, PDL 2.4.1?

Try downloading the source code and compile it manually.
It should be pretty straight forward.
