in reply to cpan install of File::HomeDir fails

It looks like this is a known bug, which was reported on CPAN for File::HomeDir last month.

You could try to hack the failing test (t/02_main.t), comment out the 2 fails, then re-run:

make test make install

Keep in mind that I do not know if this is the right thing to do because I don't know if this is a bug in the test or a bug in the module.
