First of all please read: http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Tools/urpmi After you configure the urpmi remote sources (from which it downloads the Mandriva .rpm packages to install), you can use something like: # urpmi perl-MIME-Lite (The # is the root shell prompt - do not include it.) to install the MIME-Lite CPAN distribution from urpmi, or alternatively: # urpmi perl(MIME::Lite) to install the MIME::Lite Perl namespace/package. There may be some pages on the Mandriva wiki (link above) in order to install perl packages, but these are the basics.
