not sure if it's the install script's or the user's fault. I only know, that I have no idea how to fix it.

$ sudo make cpan

You're probably better off installing the apreq2 Ubuntu package. Some useful posts from Cameron Miller here.

libapache2-mod-apreq2 was already installed. What was missing was libapache2-request-perl. Thanks!
