List of all modules installed on a system

Is there some clever, canonical way to find out out all modules that
were installed on the system via CPAN? I have a server with a lot of
modules installed, that I want to replicate, hence the question.

thanks

When it comes to anything other than changing your posting id,
you are indeed a lazy ignoramus.

Read the FFAQ:

C:\Home> perldoc -q "How do I find which modules are installed on my system?"

Will this help? From "perldoc CPAN":

autobundle

"autobundle" writes a bundle file into the "$CPAN::Con-
fig->{cpan_home}/Bundle" directory. The file contains a list of all
modules that are both available from CPAN and currently installed
within @INC. The name of the bundle file is based on the current date
and a counter.

You have such a pleasant personality, you must be very good at getting
along with people!

Your answer was right on, thank you.

Here's my function from my bashrc that prints this list, based on your
suggestion:

list-all-installed-modules() {
perl -MExtUtils::Installed -e 'print join( " ", ExtUtils::Installed->new()->modules() ) . "\n"'
}

Thanks, I think that ExtUtils::Installed is just perfect for my needs.

Expecting pleasantness while asking a Frequently Asked Question
is an unrealistic expectation.

And you, obviously, are not.
