CPAN install failure...

[Rick Bragg]

Hi,

I just tried to install HTML::Parser on my Redhat9 system
and I got the following.

Should I just force it? if so how is that done...

Thanks
Rick

sorry for all the output...

I have just force installed a number of modules and they seem to work ok. All I can suggest is to try it, you have little to lose.
