I am a relative newcomer to installation of software in Linux, and would be
most grateful for any help that I get. I am using Red Hat Linux 7.0 on a pc.
After installing perl5.6.1 from source, I installed several bundles, via CPAN,
sucessfully. When I attempted to install Bundle::LWP I ran into trouble.
In the interest of brevity I have not included the full text of the output, but
it can be found, together with other diagnostic material, at
<www.telisphere.com/~miked/LWP_trouble/>
What have I omitted? May I ignore the error? If so, how do I force installation?

I reran the test script with the verbose option, and got (in part)
