Hi folks,

I am looking for assistance to fix my install of Perl on a woody debian 
install. The debian was upgraded from potato. Several error messages 
keep exposing themselves, complaining that Net::FTP is not installed, 
when I try to update modules, etc through CPAN. 
This is a catch 22 situation as the process fails because it can't get 
files from the net but it needs to get files from CPAN. I have removed 
unwanted perl deb packages and then have used apt-get to clean and 
reinstall the suspect packages but with no success. I have done some 
searching to seek an answer but found nothing suitable. I have had 
similar difficulties in the past and eventually got perl to use lynx as 
the download agent. But I can't remember how I did it. 
Any suggestions from your collective experiences about this problem 
would be welcome.
