[ale] Perl module install question

[Christopher Fowler]

On FreeBSD and Windbloze when I try to install a perl module it blows up


[cfowler at minime clog]$ sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::libnet'
LWP not available

  Please, install Net::FTP as soon as possible. CPAN.pm installs it for
you
  if you just type
      install Bundle::libnet

Please check the validity of the index file by comparing it to more

happen.
