[Koha] Thanks, Net::Z3950 make error resolved

[Gerry Arthus]

Marty,
I found that it was easier to install webmin on your server, It can be 
used for various other functions in maintaining the Server; it also has 
an good PERL module installer which checks for and installs all other 
module dependencies.
