I'm trying to install Email::Valid on a Redhat 9 box. This is the result:
CPAN.pm: Going to build M/MA/MAURICE/Email-Valid-0.15.tar.gz Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Writing Makefile for Email::Valid cp Valid.pm blib/lib/Email/Valid.pm Manifying blib/man3/Email::Valid.3pm /usr/bin/make -- OK Running make test PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_h +arness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/valid....FAILED test 10 + Failed 1/12 tests, 91.67% okay Failed Test Stat Wstat Total Fail Failed List of Failed ---------------------------------------------------------------------- +--------- t/valid.t 12 1 8.33% 10 Failed 1/1 test scripts, 0.00% okay. 1/12 subtests failed, 91.67% okay +. make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 29 /usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK Running make install make test had returned bad status, won't install without force

I've contacted the maintainer but have not heard from them, at all. Has anyone experienced this?
