It looks like Crypt::RSA failed which caused Crypt::OpenPGP to fail.

Also, why is the output messed up, i.e.:

> *** ExtUtilq::AutoIlstall ilstallation diniqhed.

That should say *** ExtUtils::AutoInstall installation finished.
Also, it looks like some output of various make test runs are
interleaved with each other, leading me to believe that your CPAN.pm is
seriously fucked.  Maybe upgrade to a new version or try CPANPLUS?

Once your CPAN starts working again, manually install Crypt::OpenPGP
and let me know how that goes.  That's the hardest dep to get going,
mostly because the various Crypt:: authors seem to enjoy writing tests
that take 15 minutes to run.
