Re: UNable to install perl_CPAN in Cent OS 5.11
Look at the yum list comand that I ran. It lists everything in the repos with cpan in its package name and the one you're looking for is not known. There are others - perhaps the thing you want is not known by that name in CentOS 5. CentOS 5 is quite old - in fact more than quite! It has less than 1 year of life left so if this is something new you are just starting, perhaps you should look at CentOS 6 or 7 instead?
