Lately I prefer to install every module using apt-get from the standard Ubuntu repository instead of CPAN.pm.
The problem I encounter is when a module which is not available as .deb and thus I need to install it using CPAN.pm has dependencies which are available as .deb packages. Right now the only thing I can do is to tell CPAN.pm to "ask" for every dependency, check manually if .deb is available and then do the right thing. This is very error prone and labor intensive. Any suggestion to automatically mix the two methods of installation?
