thanx...via cpan I installed the latest (0.58) Archive::Extract but 'make test' gives 154 failures and says it will only install with force; using the foo.pl file also gives 154 errors. Here it is (& is it ok/how do you do the forced install?:

(for all of it go to: http://paste2.org/p/1905968 )

cpan[2]> install Archive::Extract
