        (F) You said to do (or require, or use) a file that couldn't be
        found. Perl looks for the file in all the locations mentioned in @INC,
        unless the file name included the full path to the file.  Perhaps you
        need to set the PERL5LIB or PERL5OPT environment variable to say where
        the extra library is, or maybe the script needs to add the library name
        to @INC.  Or maybe you just misspelled the name of the file.  See
        perlfunc/require and lib.

    Can you try this?

    Code:
    wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/M/MI/MIKER/Net-Interface-1.012.tar.gz
    tar xvfz Net-Interface-1.012.tar.gz
    cd Net-Interface-1.012
    perl Makefile.PL
    make
    make test
    make install
