in reply to cpan upgrade failing. Could use some help

What don't you under stand about

The most recent version "1.09" of the module "SDBM_File" is part of the perl-5.15.4 distribution. To install that, you need to +run force install SDBM_File --or-- install F/FL/FLORA/perl-5.15.4.tar.gz

SDBM is not a separate cpan module anymore, it is part of Perl itself. You need to upgrade Perl to get the latest SDBM. That's how I interpret your error message, but I may be missing something.
