Hello world

I have this problem using perl shell to install cpan modules.

I keep getting this

Running make test
Can't test without successful make
Running make install
make had returned bad status, install seems impossible

I have tried removing the .cpan directory, but this has not made any difference, if someone could assist, I would me
most greatful.

Kind Regards
Brent Clark

When make is run, there is usually some reporting of progress. When an error occurs, you need to read the last few lines to determine what went wrong.

So go back to the make part and see if you can psyche out what's wrong

I just realised I sent this to the wrong Perl list (was meant for beginners-perl), my apologies for this.

I hope no one minds in the interim that I copy and paste my output.
