I saved the changes to cpan mbuildpl_arg and tried to run the cpan install once again but still getting the same error. I display the cpan version and it's taking the 0.008 version, not the latest version. The env PERL5LIB is set. The only thing that is strange is that when I do the cpan install for 'CPAN::Meta::YAML', it doesn't say that it is up to date like it does for other modules installed. It just installs it again.
