Heya Monks, I'm trying to upgrade Bundle::CPAN but its seems not to work, it keeps hanging/freezing on running make test. here some log:

It would be helpful to know what platform. Freezing there is kinda odd. Feels like a stale NFS handle or something strange like that. You could, on some platforms anyway, `strace perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::CPAN'` to see where it gets stuck. -Paul	[reply] [d/l]

I had the same problem yesterday (Debian). I had no time to investigate and just did a `force install CPAN`. This solved it for me :)	[reply] [d/l]
