pyc has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm really newbie to Perl and I hope nobody here minds if I ask a stupid question. But I would rather not say it's stupid because I'm totally stuck and I have fairly good knowledge in computing. So please help me install GD::Graph extension because it's needed to RT installation. Here's what I get when I try to install it:
