Hi I am trying to install the Math::GSL module (in Ubuntu) for the use of a script. Other modules have installed fine. I used cpan and then install Math::GSL (even force install) and got errors. I thought it was because I hadn't installed Test::Class and so I tried to install this first and got (this is hopefully only the relevant stuff):
Test Summary Report
-------------------
t/fail2.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 2 Failed: 1) Failed test: 1
t/runtests_die.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 1 Failed: 1) Failed test: 1
t/skip1.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 1 Failed: 1) Failed test: 1
Files=47, Tests=168, 4 wallclock secs ( 0.17 usr 0.07 sys + 3.00 cusr 0.64 csys = 3.88 CPU)
Result: FAIL
Failed 3/47 test programs. 3/168 subtests failed.
ADIE/Test-Class-0.31.tar.gz
./Build test -- NOT OK
//hint// to see the cpan-testers results for installing this module, try: reports ADIE/Test-Class-0.31.tar.gz
Running Build install make test had returned bad status, won't install without force
Failed during this command:
ADIE/Test-Class-0.31.tar.gz : make_test NO

What am I missing here?
Thanks in advance for any comments!
