you only failed one subtest out of 1607. you can try to run that test
script by itself and see which actual test is failing. it maybe
something you don't care about.  it may tell you why it is failing. you
can then install with the force option if you desire. in any case report
it to the module's authors with cpan.

one other idea. some perl modules which need XS don't build well from
cpan. there are sometimes prebuilt packages for various linux distros. i
found a libnet-pcap-perl in my ubuntu repos and it installs fine. if you
can use that or a debian package then do so.

first i tried to install the module using cpan and it failed to find
libpcap even though it is installed.
