yes, the packages are:

apt-get install perl-DateManip
apt-get install perl-Time-HiRes
apt-get install perl-libwww-perl

this last one installs some other stuff:

[root at machine root]# apt-get install perl-libwww-perl
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
perl-HTML-Parser perl-HTML-Tagset
The following NEW packages will be installed:
perl-HTML-Parser perl-HTML-Tagset perl-libwww-perl

and then:

[root at icecast root]# rpm -ivh munin-*
Preparing...     ########################################### [100%]
    1:munin-node  ########################################### [ 50%]
    2:munin       ########################################### [100%]

bingo.  just need to sort the other stuff now.

many thanks alll round and best regards
