I have tried cpan and cpanm installs and get very non description errors (other

I installed DBI on a raspberry Pi ages ago. See bottom of
http://www.martin-evans.me.uk/node/142 and
http://www.martin-evans.me.uk/node/144
I had some problems running out of memory (from the above post):
BTW, I tried to install Perl DBI (which does not have many dependencies)
with cpanp and after 13 minutes it died with the signal 'Killed' - hmm.
I've not investigated further yet - but I had plenty of disk space left
on a 4gb card.
*UPDATE:* It appears I had some problems with my sd card - switched to
another one and the machine seems faster but cpanp still bombs out as
before - trying cpanminus.
*UPDATE2:* ilmari suggested cpanp might be a big memory user so I
installed cpanm and managed to install DBI - although the test suite
took over 60 minutes to run.
Doesn't cpanm have a verbose mode.
