Returned this:

    Since you are having so much trouble with this installation, maybe you should just use Perlbrew to install a fresh, independent, and current Perl installation. Then use the guide on the Perlbrew site to install cpanm and then you are running on EZ-mode.

    Also, which versions of R and Perl are you running?

      that is highly unlikely to help in this situation

      perl is 4:5.14.3-218.fc17

      R is 2.15.2-1.fc17

    So all other tests pass? In that case, ignore it and install the module -- you might also report upstream to rt://Statistics-R
