I'm trying to install some perl module but everytime this message is shown
New CPAN.pm version (v2.00) available.
[Currently running version is v1.960001]
You might want to try
install CPAN
reload cpan
to both upgrade CPAN.pm and run the new version without leaving
the current session.
I've tried to do
install CPAN
reload cpan
With
pi@raspbmc:~$ sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell
Terminal does not support AddHistory.
cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.960001)
Enter 'h' for help.
cpan[1]> install CPAN
But the result is
Going to read '/root/.cpan/sources/authors/01mailrc.txt.gz'
............................................................................DONE
Going to read '/root/.cpan/sources/modules/02packages.details.txt.gz'

In this case, I can use “force install” command as shown below to instruct cpan to install the module, despite the fact that some of the tests failed. If the force install works, you'll see “/usr/bin/make install — OK” as the last line in the output as shown below. Note: Don't blindly use force install.
Method #1: instmodsh (Debian and friends) Sample outputs: Available commands are: l - List all installed modules m - Select a module q - Quit the program cmd?
Description. The CPAN module automates or at least simplifies the make and install of perl modules and extensions. It includes some primitive searching capabilities and knows how to use Net::FTP, LWP , and certain external download clients to fetch distributions from the net.
The following procedure
kuz1@banana:~$ sudo perl -MCPAN -e shellcpan[1]> install CPANcpan[2]> reload cpanworks for me on the BANANA Pi Single-Board Computer with Ubuntu 14.04.

download CPAN module from this page http://metacpan.org/pod/CPAN
untar it (tar zxf CPAN-2.00.tar.gz), cd into the directory and run
perl Makefile.PL
make test
sudo make install
edit: if it breaks making a path with :: in it then perhaps your filesystem type does not support these characters in a filename
To see the filesystem type, run mount without any parameters and all the mounted filesystems with their types will be shown
The error Can't write-open blib/man3/CPAN::Admin.3pm seems to suggest a filesystem problem, but ext4 in rw mode sounds alright. Try this from the CPAN-2.00 directory
perl -e 'open($f,">blib/man3/CPAN::thisisatest") || die $!;'
