'Does not install' is a pretty vague probelm description. If you expect
some useful respons you would probably need to describe the problem a
bit more. For example by quoting the failing tests.
Looking at http://www.cpantesters.org/distro/P/Perlbal.html#Perlbal-1.80
it doesn't seem to be in a fully working state, but the actual failures
differs quite a bit and none of them seems to be obvious based on my
generic knowledge of perl.

my $format = sprintf "%%-%ds", $len;
$format = join ", ", ($format) x 3;
printf "$format\n", $a, $b, $c;

I'm hardly proud of this, but there was also a Sir Oswald who carried on
that sort of unpleasantness for quite a while after that, not to mention
the likes of the BNP which are unfortunately with us to this day.
Unsurprisingly, fascism is not the sort of thing you can get rid of by
winning a war.

looks like you are the fool LOL
"The data that you are using for the murder rate in England is a sham. There's a monumental miss-reporting of what constitutes murder," claimed Pratt. "If three people are murdered, it's likely to be counted as one event."
Of no surprise to those who regularly watch the show, Morgan didn't take too kindly to such a suggestion:
"What an absolute, absolute lie," he exclaimed.
"You are telling me that 50 murders a year, these are simply invented statistics, and in fact the figures in Britain for gun murders are many more times that?" Morgan asked.
"That's exactly what your own constabulary is saying," insisted the guest. "You had 970. I don't know what you're talking about."

Google Groups has a serious bug; it double-spaces quoted text,
quadruple-spaces quoted quoted text, and so on.

'Don't do that then.'
Honest posters might get the benefit of the doubt, for a while; trolls
do not.
