Re: Problem installing Apache::Test

[from Apache::Test build]
There are several ways to resolve this issue. One is to move and
rebuild the distribution to '/tmp/' and repeat the 'make test'
phase. The other is not to run 'make test' as root (i.e. building
under your /home/user directory).

Can I get CPAN to install this properly, or is a manual install the only
way to get it installed?

You probably could get CPAN to build it, but it might end up being
more work than doing a ''manual'' install. You already have the
tarball downloaded by CPAN, so just build as a normal user to run
make test. In theory, you could use force install Apache::Test to
install it even though make test fails, if you either don't care
about Apache::Test passing make test, or if you have some other
way of testing Apache::Test.
