I had perl version 5.8 on a linux box, when 5.8.1 came out, naturally I upgraded. I noticed that in so doing that I lost some modules, including the LWP library. Now I'm going back and reinstalling some modules via CPAN.pm. *One* of the problems I have run into is the following error.

&lt;code&gt;
....
    Test returned status 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00)
DIED. FAILED tests 1-19
        Failed 19/19 tests, 0.00% okay
local/http............Perl lib version (v5.8.0) doesn't match executable version (v5.8.1) at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i686-linux/Config.pm line 21.
....
&lt;/code&gt;
The part that concerns me is:
&lt;code&gt;
Perl lib version (v5.8.0) doesn't match executable version (v5.8.1)
&lt;/code&gt;
What can I do about that?
