The Spider adminmanual_en.txt shows the following modules as being
required and I indicate what Debian packages I am using:

  o  Data-Dumper-2.101.tar.gz  - This is contained in perl-base.

  o  TimeDate-1.10.tar.gz      - libtimedate-perl

  o  IO-1.20.tar.gz (for perl 5.00403 and lower) - not applicable here

  o  Net-Telnet-3.03.tar.gz    - libnet-telnet-perl

  o  Curses-1.06.tar.gz        - libcurses-perl

  o  Time-HiRes-01.20.tar.gz   - Stable has libtime-hires-perl, but
                                 this does not exist for testing or 
				 unstable.  Maybe I had it at one
                                 time and it became uninstalled because
                                 of a removed dependency.  See below.

  o  Digest-SHA1-2.01.tar.gz   - libdigest-sha1-perl


I didn't realize that Time-HiRes was missing!

I just ran 'dh-make-perl Time::HiRes' and then did cd into the
directory it created and ran 'debian/rules binary' and it created
libtime-hires-perl_1.52-1_i386.deb, which I installed. If you are
running stable, just install the program from the Debian archive.  I
don't know where high resolution timing is used by Spider, but suspect
that it wasn't all that critical, since I haven't seen any problems.

I hope this helps.
