Greetings, caratmonk.

It would appear that you are very new to Perl. Moreover, that you are not very familiar with the process, and what might be expected, when installing Perl Modules. The error you are receiving, indicates that you are missing (at least) one other module, that is needed for the module you are attempting to install. Either because it needs it, in order to function properly. Or that it needs it to actually build, or install.

You sould really do a little investigation regarding the installation of Perl Modules, before attempting an installation. You could go to Perl's home page, read the Perl doc's, and even read a quick reference to installing Perl Modules; located on CPAN, the primary resource for all things Perl Module. Any of these references, will easily get you "up to speed" in a relatively short period of time. Arming you with invaluable knowledge. That empowers you to do far more than simply installing Perl Modules. :)
Oh, and did I mention the Search Box, up in the left-hand corner of every page, here on PerlMonks? :)

Best wishes.

UPDATE: updated link for Installing Perl Modules. Added reference to the CPAN.
