The latest version of the LaTeX::Driver module can be retrieved from:
http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/LaTeX-Driver/
To install the module
tar zxf LaTeX-Driver-0.06.tar.gz
cd LaTeX-Driver-0.06
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
The Makefile.PL will prompt for the location of the LaTeX binaries. If it can locate the binaries then the paths will be given as defaults. If neither the latex nor the pdflatex binary can be found and no paths are given for these programs then Makefile.PL will ask whether you want to continue with the installation (as the module depends on there being a functional tex installation present on the system).
For further details, see the sections below on CONFIGURATION, BUILDING AND TESTING, and INSTALLATION.
The LaTeX::Driver module is written entirely in Perl and should run on any platform on which Perl is available (currently only Linux has been tested). It requires Perl 5.006 or later.
The following CPAN modules are used:
Class::Accessor
Cwd from PathTools
Exception::Class
File::Slurp
File::Spec from PathTools
IO::File from IO
There are no known dependencies on particular versions of these modules.
