I hit the same breakage but was able to 'look CPAN::Meta::Requirements' and then 'perl Makefile.PL; make; make install' successfully, without having to download manually.

    I ran into this as well on an (otherwise) pretty uncomplicated install of CentOS 6.5, and your solution worked for me as well. But what is the fundamental problem? Why does CPAN insist on hosing itself in this way?
