Jens, I am using cpan for module installations. 

On thing is that the CPAN failed on this test but passed when I ran it
via the vi 'perl Makefile.PL' way.

t/04clean_load.t ....... Can't stat blib/lib: A file or directory in the
path name does not exist.
 at t/04clean_load.t line 8
You said to run 0 tests at t/04clean_load.t line 11.
t/04clean_load.t ....... Dubious, test returned 2 (wstat 512, 0x200)

Here is proof of CPAN installation. I still don't have a prove command.

perl binary is in /usr/bin and prove is in /usr/local/bin.

This sounds reasonable, Martin. I encountered massive problems on AIX
with the old modules. I used some more recent ones (especially toolchain
and test modules).
But they are named all in Makefile.PL or META.yml, so cpan should have
the preinstalled.

Hatala, you're using cpan, cpanplus or cpanminus, don't you? If you
don't use them, you checked META.yml and/or Makefile.PL for
prerequisites, don't you?

Jens
