This is a bug in old CPAN. First, use CPAN to update itself: install CPAN now force a reconfigure "o conf" or "o conf all" should do it (check the man page for the exact command). Now quit and re-run CPAN. It will no longer force you to install perl 5.6.1. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Vivek Khera, Ph.D. Khera Communications, Inc.
