Hangs install on OSX from CPAN

It just hangs there.

doing a force install and ctrl-c past the test issue results in Padre being installed without the "padre" command, so unable to run.

Also, many dependencies didn't automatically install, eg.

[szabgab]

have you managed to install it since then?

[mwatson]

Have not had a chance to try again yet sorry.

[szabgab]

It probably needs a newer wxWidgtes library. (install Alien::wxWidgets and then recompile Wx as well).

We are at 0.21 already and several people reported successful installation on Mac.
