It won't go away at a stroke. You are installing a huge Perl library with
external dependencies, and there are many places for it to go wrong.

That's cool. We have some better diagnostics at least.

The problem now is

  Using -L/usr/lib to find /usr/lib/libX11.so.6.2.0
  Cannot find X include files via /usr/include

It's looking for the Debian X11 library and failing to find it in /usr/lib

Can you fix that? I can't really help you in any depth with Debian.

For now, take a look in /usr/lib and see if there are any libX11 files at all.
You may need to install a component or possibly you have a previous corrupt
installation.
