Ok,
Not sure why this wasn't just suggested sooner. I got it to work.
All I did was compiled the module outside of CPAN by downloading the
binary (2.9003).
I opened terminal and typed:
sudo perl Makefile.PL
(it worked, then I typed)
sudo make
(it worked, so then I typed)
sudo make test
(it failed, so I said to hell with it, lets just try this, and I typed)
sudo make install
And that was it. It copied some files and now everything works. (shrug)
