i think another solution would be to just rip out debian's
/usr/lib/perl5 and /usr/bin/perl and install perl from source using
/usr/local/lib. then all cpan modules will be properly installed there
and perl will be in /usr/local/bin. also
I did some research on CPAN v Debian recently since I want to try
Maypole on a Debian system. (Not at work -- my research project is on
Debian on Alpha 20264, 64-bit Perl, whee)
PerlMonks has an article on the hazards of breaking the Perl that Debian
itself relies upon for it's package management

6. what has changed since that installation?
I can't think of anything. I may have upgraded something using apt-get

I've got a perl 5.6.1 installation on debian 2.4.23 that seems to fail
many many tests when I try to install packages. The current packages
I'm trying to install are
Geo::Code::US and Bundle::CPAN. Both are failing all kinds of tests,
an I'm not sure where to start troubleshooting.
What's the
according to CPAN) and Bundle::CPAN (looks okay)?
