Note that it's simple to install CPAN modules, assuming that CPAN has been set up on the machines in question (configured for ftp paths, etc.). From the CPAN manpage:

    use CPAN;
    # install my favorite programs if necessary:
    for $mod (qw(Net::FTP MD5 Data::Dumper)){
       my $obj = CPAN::Shell->expand('Module',$mod);
       $obj->install;
    }
