Hello Joel,

I'm running Fedora 10, Ecasound and Ecasound Development files 
1:2.6.0-1.fc10.ccrma from the PlanetCCRMA repositories.

As a normal user, 'cpan Tk Time::HiRes Audio::Ecasound::Multitrack' 
began to install cpan, I selected [Yes] to take the suggested 
defaults, connected to the Internet okay, but got stopped on make.

I deleted ~/.cpan to start over.

In my normal user home directory, I went su (SuperUser) and reran 
'cpan Tk Time::HiRes Audio::Ecasound::Multitrack'

This time cpan installed.  But trouble came in with failure to make 
Tk-804.028

I am not a perl programmer and have no idea what the diagnostics are 
telling me.

Suggestions?

Thanks Joel,
