It is in general a _very_ _bad_ idea to install software by hand on a 
rpm based system. This reduces any advantage you get with yum/rpm to 
absurdity. The wiki ist just wrong in this topic.

There are some second party repositories which support Centos/EL like 
rpmforge and epel.

I know rpmforge has some of the perl modules, if you ask kindly their 
maintainers there is a good chance the missinng modules will be 
available. I'd be also interested in this because I will upgrade our MX 
from EL4 to EL5.
