Here is the complete install command to CPAN and the output:

sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::CPAN' CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.13) Going to read /home/delgreco/.cpan/Metadata   Database was generated on Mon, 08 Dec 2008 03:27:10 GMT CPAN: LWP::UserAgent loaded ok (v2.033) CPAN: Time::HiRes loaded ok (v1.55) CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.39) Warning: YAML version '0.39' is too low, please upgrade! I'll continue but problems are *very* likely to happen. Your urllist is empty! The urllist can be edited. E.g. with 'o conf urllist push ftp://myurl/'  Could not fetch authors/id/A/AN/ANDK/Bundle-CPAN-1.857.tar.gz Giving up on '/home/delgreco/.cpan/sources/authors/id/A/AN/ANDK/Bundle-CPAN-1.857.tar.gz' Note: Current database in memory was generated on Mon, 08 Dec 2008 03:27:10 GMT          ...propagated at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/CPAN.pm line 3417.

This worked for me, thanks…

cpan> o conf urllist http://cpan.yahoo.com/

Of course, the Bundle::CPAN install proceeded to fail on other dependencies, but at least I have a YAML 0.68 now.

  1. This looks important:

     Your urllist is empty! The urllist can be edited. E.g. with 'o conf urllist push ftp://myurl/'

    Perhaps run sudo cpan, then o conf init or o conf urllist push http://cpan.yahoo.com/ (for example) to get your urllist straightened out? Then try to do your installs.
