Hi

I've just compiled perl 5.16.0 from source. When I run "cpan" straight after, most of the config runs smoothly, but then I get this:

Autoconfigured everything but 'urllist'.

Now you need to choose your CPAN mirror sites.  You can let me
pick mirrors for you, you can select them from a list or you
can enter them by hand.

Would you like me to automatically choose some CPAN mirror
sites for you? (This means connecting to the Internet) [yes] 
Looking for CPAN mirrors near you (please be patient)
........Can't call method "http" on unblessed reference at /usr/local/
+lib/perl5/5.16.0/CPAN/FirstTime.pm line 1866.

[download]

Any is ideas? I'm running CentOS release 6.2 (Final)

Thanks
