Can't locate Tkx.pm in @INC

I'm trying to run a simple Perl script. The first three lines are:

Code: 
#!\perl\bin



use Tkx;




But when I run it I get this error:


Code: 
Can't locate Tkx.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.1/BSDPAN /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1/mach 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.1/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.1 .)
How can I check if Tkx.pm is installed or how can I install it?

Problems start here. That's a Windows path with backslashes.

Code: 
use Tkx;

I can't find Tkx in ports. If there's no port, you can install it from CPAN. See the man page for cpan(1). If it requires anything else (Tk in this case), you'll need to install that, too, from ports if available.
 
I tried;

Code: 
cpan Tkx

It failed saying:

Can't find "tclsh" but it's called tclsh8.6. so I made a softlink; ln -s tclsh8.6 tclsh then tried again. I don't know if that was the right thing to do but then it failed:

I don't know what else to do, not having any luck.
 
I notice there is a lang/p5-Tcl. What is that? I have Tcl 8.6 installed already. Do I need to install p5-Tcl?

I installed p5-Tcl and now when running cpan Tkx I get this error on every line:

Code: 
attempt to provide package Tk 8.5 failed: package Tk 8.5.8 provided instead at ...

Any ideas?
 
A conflict between where the CPAN modules expect to find other modules and where the port installed it? Other than that, no idea. Sorry.
