The best way to do a perl5.14 to perl5.20 upgrade is by simply upgrading from a package repo with all the perl stuff built against perl5.20. Works like a charm, and only reinstalls the necessary stuff. Trying to work out all this dependency stuff by hand tends to be error-prone, tedious and leave your system in a bit of a mess.
