I was trying to get Remember the Milk to appear in my conky. I needed to set up a webservice and did this command in a terminal:
cpan WebService::RTMAgent
A lot of scripts were added/run. It wouldn't finish the make/install until I used:
cpan -fi WebService::RTMAgent
and I believe I needed to be root.

After all that though, I decided not to have RTM run in my conky.
So I would like to either uninstall the webservice or at least make sure it isn't accessing anything it shouldn't.
So what should I do? I am not sure where the log for the installation is either.
Thank you!

Have you tried going back to the directory you started in and running"make uninstall". I'm nat familiar with this stuff but if it's just scripts and you can locate them just delete them.

Thanks, erie. The make/install was run as part of the cpan command from the home directory. But I did find a .cpan directory in my home; I had missed it when it first installed. It looks like most of what was installed is there though. I may give rtm another go before I just delete the folder.
