From your shell prompt:
sudo cpan
No, if you used to use CPAN.pm as root, then instead say this:
sudo tar cf - .cpan -C ~root | tar xvf - -C ~
sudo rm -r ~root/.cpan
You are right - one should properly copy the existing configuration.
In my case, on OS X, the location of 'MyConfig.pm' is
/Users/matisse/Library/Application Support/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm
so I did:
cp /System/Library/Perl/5.8.6/CPAN/Config.pm \
"/Users/matisse/Library/Application Support/.cpan/CPAN/
MyConfig.pm"
Nothing is as simple as it seems. Or almost nothing anyway.
