I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Problems using CPAN to update or install any modules
When trying to install or upgrade any cpan modules I get the following error message:
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Writing Makefile for HTML::Parser
-- NOT OK
Running make test
Can't test without successful make
Running make install
make had returned bad status, install seems impossible
my perl version:
perl-5.8.3-32.1
my linux version:
Linux gwaihir 2.6.5-7.97-smp #1 SMP Fri Jul 2 14:21:59 UTC 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (i586)

I tried 2 different modules, same error messages ?
any help would be appreciated ! Thank You
