Which you apparently didn't read all the way through, since it told you what
to do to fix your problem. :)


NOTE: if you get an error like this (the Makefile line number may vary):

Hm. Let's see what the actual error was:

Makefile:91: *** missing separator. Stop.


So I would suggest that you set the environment variable LC_ALL to "C" and
retry. Call it a hunch. :)

You can set it just for the duration of the CPAN session, right on the perl
command line:

# LC_ALL=C perl -MCPAN -e "install Time::HiRes"
