Downloading them is not. You have to install them.

How do you do that?

Well, if you prefer to do it by hand as you evidently do, you should read the README file that is part of the tarball (.tar.gz file) you downloaded from CPAN.

First you unpack it with gunzip and tar, then:

 perl Makefile.PL
 make
 make test
 make install

[download]

For the final, make install step, you need to be root.
