Tried to install 'Authen::Libwrap' multiple times in vain.
Installed all the modules except 'warnings' as per http://deps.cpantesters.org/?module=Authen%3A%3ALibwrap;perl=latest
This is the error I get: [ CPAN.pm: Building D/DM/DMUEY/Authen-Libwrap-0.22.tar.gz

Would appreciate any help in successfully installing this module.
Well, I'm not sure if this is the same issue I ran into (time and time again) until I figured out why it wouldn't compile and install properly.
I needed to manually install a few prerequisite packages first and then Authen::Libwrap perl module compiled and installed fine.
apt-get install libwrap0 libwrap0-dev
