I'm attempting to install the Net::SSH::Perl module via CPAN, but it hangs
at t/generator.t.....1/18 and never finishes. I assume this has something
to do with the hardware? It's a single-board computer (Pine64:
www.pine64.com), if that makes any difference.

t/generator.t does not seem to be part of Net-SSH-Perl. Probably it's in one of its dependencies. Can you check which dependency is built at this moment?

(I found a t/generator.t in Crypt-Random --- though I cannot see that Crypt-Random is a dependency of Net-SSH-Perl. If it's Crypt-Random, then I guess that you have problems with too less entropy. An entropy generator could help in this case)

Hi,

not that I think this issue would be gone but anyway, just a heads-up that I just uploaded a new v2.12. Maybe there is hope just by accidence.

Kind regards,
Steffen
