What's your setup?

I installed it today to check on two macs running 10.6.8-- one a 32 bit core duo, and the other a 64 bit core 2 duo. Both had Perl 5.14.2 installed via Perlbrew, and I used cpanp to do both installs.

If you're trying to install to the 5.10.1 that comes with it, it's possible that it has strange pathologies. I had trouble running a module (PDFEverywhere, not in cpan) on the 5.10.1 install on my machine, but it worked fine on 5.10 on other machines, fine under 5.14 on my machine.

Have you tried following its recommendations and installing with prompts (which might let you skip the ppc problem) or by force, which will install it in spite of the errors. If the errors are only related to things that won't get used on your machine, you might be ok.
