Re: pkg/55109: p5-WWW-Curl Package is no longer available; 'cpan -i WWW::Curl' fails

Thanks Thomas. Turns out there is an easy solution which allows an existing program to execute on machines (Ubuntu 18.04!) which have WWW::Curl::Easy and also on machines which don't  .. thus

--

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use strict;

use warnings;

BEGIN { eval { require Net::Curl::Compat; } }

use WWW::Curl::Easy;

use Sys::Syslog;

 .. etc
