Falling back to other methods to determine prerequisites ---- Unsatisfied dependencies detected during ---- ---- MIYAGAWA/App-cpanminus-1.5015.tar.gz ---- then it tries to install 5 dependencies all unsuccesfully since i had just uninstalled macports, in which i sudo port installed perl5, that did succesfully install App::cpanminus but then it still could not recognize the cpanm command, I can reinstall macports and reinstall perl through that maybe? I am pretty sure my mac perl files are all screwed up and i would like to have this clean install, i already tried macports but that did not work too well, and i have no idea how to use perlbrew
