ExtUtils::MakeMaker is one of the modules that comes with Perl, so if it
can't be found in the standard @INC list, you have a seriously damaged Perl
installation.
See if the file exists anywhere under /usr/local/lib/perl5. Perl is looking
for modules under /usr/local/lib because that's where the libraries were
supposed to go when the perl executable was built.
You might have more than one perl executable file. Perhaps one in /usr/bin/
and one in /usr/local/bin/.
