I found one other reference to this issue on google and the guy having =
the problem did exactly what
you did and forced the install. He then had issues. He thought it was =
related to network device
detection. I'll have to go that route and hope to not have problems. =
Thanks

We need some smart people to find the root cause of this issue. I'm too =
dumb.=20

I recently installed Net::Pcap from the cpan shell and the test failed =
as well. I did a force install
and the install completed and it appears to be working fine. Not sure if =
will be any repercussions in
the future though.

Environment:
Fedora Core 3
yum updated libpcap-0.8.3
tarball download of Net-Pcap.0.5
Perl 5.8.5


Problem:
Makefile.PL works fine and creates Makefile
make works
make install works
make test fails on 07-stats.t

Discussion:
The only error is "bad statistics". Has anyone else seen this problem? =
How can I further
troubleshoot the issue?
