Do you want to install Inline::C? [y] y
(/home/perl/perl-5.16.3/bin/perl Makefile.PL exited with 9)

Very frustrating -- I tried to type 'y', bt it was ignored, as STDIN seems
to be taken over by CPAN.

Yes, I would find that very annoying.
I don't use any of the CPAN family of modules very much - I avoid them
unless there's a very long dependency chain.
Consequently, I don't know much about the options they provide, or about the
details of the way in which they're supposed to work.

Did David's reply help ?

The only thing I can think of adding to what David provided is that, if
you're happy to accept the default, then setting the PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT
environment variable to 1 should enable that. (The default will be 'y' if a
compiler is found, and 'n' if a compiler is not found.)

Cheers,
Rob
