in reply to "make test" errors

Since per your update you've solved the latter I'll address the first one. It certainly doesn't seem like a deal-breaker to me. But to be thorough you could look in MANIFEST to see what is causing the test to fail. MANIFEST files are pretty straightforward, so given the test description it should be easy enough to fix your MANIFEST, 'make test' again, and move on.

    Thanks learned David Monk. You have help me solve it. I agree my skills are rudimentary but enjoy learning this way and really appreciate when help arrives!
    MANIFEST contained a line that referred to a non-existent file:

    cpan/Archive-Extract/t/src/y.tar.gz
    This was in line 38
    I deleted this -->test PASSES!
    I have one final other test failure but will open a new post!
