The following should be in the README (Jesse?):

	When 'make testdeps' indicates that a module is not installed in
	your environment, you will need to install the requisite modules
	before continuing.  The easiest method of doing this is to use
	CPAN to install it for you.  As root, start CPAN by:

		# perl -MCPAN -e shell

	If this is your first time using CPAN, it will ask you a whole
	variety of questions.  Most of these are fairly self-explanatory,
	but if you get stuck, refer to http://www.cpan.org/ for a guide.

	Once at the cpan prompt ('cpan>'), simply request the installation
	of the requisite module, eg:

		cpan> install Apache::Cookie

	As you delve deeper into RT, a lot of questions will be answered
	with 'cpan> some_arcane_commands'.  If you don't understand what
	a CPAN command does, be sure to read up on it at the CPAN site
	referenced above.

Regards,
