1. Install all dependent packages for CPAN
  apt-get install build-essential

2. invoke the cpan command as a normal user
  cpan

But once you hit on enter for “cpan” to execute, you be asked of some few questions. To make it simple for yourself, answer “no” for the first question so that the latter ones will be done for you automatically.

3. Once the above is done, you will be present with the cpan
prompt. now enter the commands below
  o conf prerequisites_policy ask
  make install
  install Bundle::CPAN

4. Now all is set and you can install any perl module you want. examples of what installed below
  cpan prompt>  install IO::File
  cpan prompt>  install Net::SMTP_auth
  cpan prompt>  Email::MIME::Attachment::Stripper
  cpan prompt>  Mail::POP3Client
