[Aspell-user] perl module cpan test Text::Aspell

[David Hoare]

Hi,

I am new to Aspell and have fallen at the first hurdle. 

I am using Linux Radhat 8 and perl 5.6.1.

I am have been trying to install the perl module of Aspell (Text::Aspell) 
using cpan and have run into a couple of problems. Firstly an include file 
couldn't be found - I got over this by installing the latest version of 
Aspell by hand into /usr/local. There are now a copies in /usr/ and 
/usr/local. I think this is okay. Secondly when running test 
Text::Aspell I get the following -

cpan> test Text::Aspell
Running test for module Text::Aspell
Running make for H/HA/HANK/Text-Aspell-0.03.tar.gz
  Is already unwrapped into directory 
/usr/local/cpan5.6.1/build/Text-Aspell-0.03
  Has already been processed within this session
Running make test

Can anyone please point me in the right direction in order to get this 
working. 

Thanks in advance.
