Unable to install AWStats on Alma Linux 8.6

I tried to install but get:

Error:
Problem: conflicting requests
nothing provides perl(Switch) needed by awstats-7.8-2.el8.noarch
(try to add ‘–skip-broken’ to skip uninstallable packages or ‘–nobest’ to use not only best candidate packages)

I tried --skip-broken, and --nobest (same problem) but then it doesn’t work and many of the files are missing

Does anyone know if there's a solution to this?

I do not know what to tell you
i have always installed awstats from source code , and for that matter the whole apache stack from source code as well .

where did you get the "awstats-7.8-2.el8.noarch" rpm from ??

using dnf ?

or

Did you just randomly download a random rpm from a site ?

I used the Alma dnf It's on epel. Isn't that the whole idea of a repository? WFT should I want to build it from source. You think I run a server for Linux fun? I mean why buy a car when you can build it from the parts?

Alma Linux 8.6 is supposed to be identical with CentOS 8 :
The package 'perl-Switch' is in the PowerTools repo →

# dnf config-manager --set-enabled powertools

(or maybe # dnf config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools )

Thanks for that. It worked fine. Everything went according to plan until:
sudo /usr/share/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=myDomain.com -update

At this point there seems to be a permissions problem but no matter what I try it still stays there. Everything is owned by apache and I tried 755 but nope - doesn't work.

I'm very much a noob to Linux so I guess I did something stupid.
