First Installation

[Ivan Kohler]

Did bin/fs-setup run correctly?

Sounds like you forgot this step of the instructions:

    Copy or link fs-x.y.z/site_perl to FS in your site_perl directory.
    (try `perl -V' if unsure) 

          mkdir /usr/local/lib/site_perl/FS
          cp fs-x.y.z/site_perl/* /usr/local/lib/site_perl/FS

          or 

          ln -s /full/path/to/fs-x.y.z/site_perl /usr/local/lib/site_perl/FS

Maybe you're confused by the fact that the example site_perl directory
isn't the same as yours?

Try
    ln -s /full/path/to/fs-1.2.1/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/FS
