Just a note.  If you do it from CPAN rpm will not know about it.  I have
taken to dling the tar ball of a module and using cpanflute to build
perl module rpms and installing them since it is WAY easiyer for me to
remember what I have done to a box with rpm.

BTW cpan flute is not in the normal execution path.  is is buried in
/usr/lib/rpm/

[root@bretsony RPMS]# locate cpanflute
/usr/lib/rpm/cpanflute
/usr/lib/rpm/cpanflute2


Very handy tool IMNSHO
