In trying to install LWP on a new SuSE 8.1 system, I get an error
trying to test libwww-perl-5.65:

robot/ua.............NOK 2HTTP Server terminated
robot/ua.............FAILED tests 1-3, 5, 7
Failed 5/7 tests, 28.57% okay
local/autoload.......ok
local/get............ok
local/http...........NOK 7Can't call method "is_redirect" on an undefined value at local/http.t line 188, <DAEMON> line 1.
local/http...........NOK 8HTTP Server terminated
local/http...........dubious
Test returned status 22 (wstat 5632, 0x1600)
DIED. FAILED tests 1-18
Failed 18/18 tests, 0.00% okay

Anyone have any ideas on this or any pointers?

I'm quite sure that there are RPMs of libwww-perl available from SuSE...why
not try that?

No such luck for SuSE 8.1. All the sites (mail lists/dox)
I've found for LWP/libwww-perl (via google) seem to end about
mid 2001. Is anyone maintaining this any more? If not,
does anyone know where I might find a bit of help? If not
perhaps this isn't the best thing to be basing MythTV
on if it's not going to be supported for new OS updates.

Seems a RPM of it for suse 8.1 does exist.
