That's exactly what I tried.  It's just that from everything I can find
on google redhat does not package perl-tk, and neither does anyone else
reputable.  Oh sure, I found an rpm out on the web, but it had some
weird dependancy and I didn't want to start down that path.

I tried installing it with cpan as root like so:

perl -MCPAN -e 'install "Tk"'

It ran for a long time, downloaded a bunch of stuff, compiled some
stuff, and ran a bunch of tests where strange windows popped up and
dissappeard quickly.  In the end I got this message:

Failed Test    Stat Wstat Total Fail  Failed  List of Failed
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 (3 subtests UNEXPECTEDLY SUCCEEDED), 2 tests and 31 subtests skipped.
Failed 1/47 test scripts, 97.87% okay. 2/2054 subtests failed, 99.90%
okay.
make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 29
  /usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK
Running make install
  make test had returned bad status, won't install without force

I'm willing to try and force, but I don't know exactly the best way to
do that at this point.  Any advice here?
