Need some help -- trying ot install Sybperl

I'm trying to install Sybperl/DBD::Sybase on a new (Linux) box, and I'm 
not sure if things are going right. I've done this before, but that's a 
long time ago and I don't recall how I did it last time.

Basically, below I'm running "install Sybase::CTlib" in CPAN . Things look 
OK until  'make test' is run: all tests fail.
My question: how can I find out more about what's exactly failing here?
This box has Perl 5.8.0 installed.

TIA,

Rob V.
