Data::Dumper is a part of Perl and should come installed with your Perl installation already. If your distributor did exclude it, you have to find what package they put it in instead. You can check whether you have Data::Dumper installed by running the following command:

perl -MData::Dumper -e 'print "Data::Dumper is installed"'

The error message indicates that your C compiler is a different C compiler (version) than what was used to compile Perl with - this likely means that you will encounter more problems when you try to install Perl modules with a C (or "XS") component.
