I understand that I haven't given much to go on.  I reran
	# perl -MCPAN -e'install Jifty'
and here's part of what I captured:

Going to read /root/.cpan/build/
............................................................................DONE
Found 178 old builds, restored the state of 172
Running install for module 'Jifty'
Running make for A/AL/ALEXMV/Jifty-0.90701.tar.gz

t/00-load.t ............................................
Dubious, test returned 2 (wstat 512, 0x200)
Failed 2/2 subtests

( many repeated lines of "Dubious" )

followed by

Test Summary Report

   Non-zero exit status: 2

and more, ending with

result: FAIL
   ALEXMV/Jifty-0.90701.tar.gz
   /usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK
//hint// to see the cpan-testers results for installing this module, try:
   reports ALEXMV/Jifty-0.90701.tar.gz
Running make install
   make test had returned bad status, won't install without force
prerequisite module[Apache2::Const] not known
CPAN: Time::HiRes loaded ok (v1.9719)

I suppose I'm being perhaps too simple minded here -  I think I would 
like to use Jifty, but if the install procedure fails....

Thanks for listening
