To upgrade a Perl module:

  1. Download the file from www.cpan.org
  2. untargzip the archive
  3. cd into directory
  4. Compile and install the package:
    perl Makefile.PL
    make
    make install

During the upgrade, you may get a message that additional packages are required. You need to set up these packages and try the installation again. If you don't know where to get these packages, try cpan.org

Alternatively, you can update perl using the perl CPAN.pm module.
