You automate it by using the CPAN module or the cpan command.  That is
what they do.  There will undoubtly be dependencies and you will have
to chase them down yourself; usually after the perl Makefile.PL step
fails.

If you are not using cpan then you need to pay very close attention to
all messages given to you by the install process.
