trouble installing LWP and SVN::Core

bluethundr has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello Monks,
My goal is to get SVN::Core installed which relies on two things: sqlite3 and LWP.
When I went to install SVN::Core from CPAN it complained about both. So I downloaded sqlite3 manually and installed it manually and got past that point.

But with LWP it keeps failing. Whether I try installing it via CPAN or download and install it manually.

If I try installing it via CPAN this is what I see: 
MIME::Base64 is up to date (3.14).
Digest::MD5 is up to date (2.53).
URI is up to date (1.60).
Net::FTP is up to date (2.79).
HTML::Tagset is up to date (3.20).
HTML::Parser is up to date (3.71).
HTML::HeadParser is up to date (3.71).
Running install for module 'LWP'
  MSCHILLI/libwww-perl-6.06.tar.gz
  Has already been unwrapped into directory /root/.cpan/build/MSCHILLI
+-_QegDo
  MSCHILLI/libwww-perl-6.06.tar.gz
  Had problems unarchiving. Please build manually

[download]

And if I go to /root/.cpan/build/MSCHILLI this is what I see:
[root@uszmpaplp005lc MSCHILLI-_QegDo]# ls
libwww-perl-6.06  libwww-perl-6.06.tar

[download]

It looks like it was able to download libwww-perl-6.06.tar. But if I remove the directory and try to expand the archive it looks like the archive is corrupt:
[tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword `SCHILY.dev'
tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword `SCHILY.ino'
tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword `SCHILY.nlink'
libwww-perl-6.06/bin/lwp-download
tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword `SCHILY.dev'
tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword `SCHILY.ino'
tar: Ignoring unknown extended header keyword `SCHILY.nlink'
libwww-perl-6.06/bin/lwp-dump
libwww-perl-6.06/bin/lwp-mirror
libwww-perl-6.06/bin/lwp-request
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

[download]

And if I download the archive manually from cpan and try to expand it, I get the exact same result. So it looks to me that the archive of this module itself is corrupt on CPAN. If I understand the situation correctly.
So how exactly can I get this module installed so that I can proceed with SVN::Core?

      HI! And thanks for getting back to me. Your ptar suggestion worked like a charm! But when I got past perl Makefile.PL to make and then make test, LWP complained that I was missing a couple of perl modules: 
      HTTP::Daemon
WWW::RobotRules

      [download]
      So then I tried installing those using CPAN and that worked! So then I tried perl Makefile.PL, make and make test again and this is where the process is leaving me: 
      [root@host libwww-perl-6.06]# make test

      I think the problem at this point is with one of the HTTP modules. But I don't really know how to approach that error. Any help or monk wisdom here would be appreciated!

Re: trouble installing LWP and SVN::Core

    There are tickets on this problem rt://94844, rt://53714.

    Release tarballs ought to be sanitized (single toplevel folder; sane permissions, times; stripped or plain usernames/uids).
    Also, for maximum compatibility, it is recommended that ustar format be selected: 

    tar --format ustar ...
    Both GNU tar and bsdtar recognize this option.

      Ok thanks guys! I've actually gotten over the hurdle of getting LWP installed. 
      [root@uszmpaplp005lc ~]# perl -e 'while (<@INC>) { while (<$_/*.pm>) {
+ print "$_\n"; } }'  | grep -i lwp
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.20.0/LWP.pm

      [download]


      And I'm now to a point where I can attempt to install SVN::Core. And when I do I cam running into a new error:
      checking for APR-util... no
configure: WARNING: APRUTIL not found
The Apache Portable Runtime Utility (APRUTIL) library cannot be found.
Either install APRUTIL on this system and supply the appropriate
--with-apr-util option

or

get it with SVN and put it in a subdirectory of this source:

   svn co \
    http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/apr/apr-util/branches/1.3.x \
    apr-util

Run that right here in the top level of the Subversion tree.
Afterwards, run apr-util/buildconf in that subdirectory and
then run configure again here.

configure: error: no suitable APRUTIL found
configuring SVN failed at inc/My/SVN/Builder.pm line 118, <STDIN> line
+ 3.
    Something went wrong with the Subversion configuration.
    Please attempt to correct it and re-run Build.PL.
Warning: No success on command[/usr/local/bin/perl Build.PL]
  MSCHWERN/Alien-SVN-v1.7.17.1.tar.gz
  /usr/local/bin/perl Build.PL -- NOT OK

      [download]


      It looks like at this point the installation process can't find my APRUTIL install.

      I do have RPM installs of apr and apr-util installed.
      root@uszmpaplp005lc Alien-SVN-v1.7.17.1# rpm -qa | grep apr
apr-1.2.7-11.el5_6.5
apr-util-1.4.1-2.1
apr-devel-1.2.7-11.el5_6.5


      Can someone please help me get past this point? Thanks
