    Thank you so very much!

    The Failed Tests while Installing HTML::Parser link lead me to a discussion of same in one of its replies, which says basically this:

    RedHat 8 makes its default language en_US.UTF8 instead of just en_US for some reason, and perl tries to honor this. By switching the $LANG environment variable to en_US (for Anglophiles of US dialect, of course), it lets it work.

    This worked very well. I love this site more every time I think to use it. Thanks again. Sorry I didn't search first this time. I usually do, but I got hurried. I'll remember to search first next time.

      By the way, the upcoming perl 5.8.1 release will fix this problem.
