My cpan seems to have got it's knickers in a twist, and I am stuck on what the issue is:

sudo cpan WWW::WebKit Reading '/root/.cpan/Metadata' Database was generated on Sun, 13 Nov 2016 01:53:31 GMT WWW::WebKit is up to date (0.09). ... sudo cpan Gtk2:WebKit ... ... Fetching http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/F/FL/FLORA/Gtk2-WebKit-0.09.ta +r.gz -> OK Unpacking Gtk2-WebKit-0.09.tar.gz Entering Gtk2-WebKit-0.09 Checking configure dependencies from META.yml Checking if you have ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.58 ...

Perhaps you should add the directory containing `webkit-1.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'webkit-1.0' found

So, downloads version 0.09 then looks for version 1.0? Any help appreciated please!

Thanks, Nick
