in thread Installing modules on Mac OS X

Thanks, it seems that there is no configuration for make
---snip--- keep_source_where /Users/larus/.cpan/sources lynx make make_arg make_install_arg makepl_arg ncftp ncftpget no_proxy pager /usr/bin/less prerequisites_policy ask scan_cache atstart shell /bin/bash tar /usr/bin/tar term_is_latin 1 unzip /usr/bin/unzip urllist wget ---snip---
How should I configure it? Thank you for your help.

    On your cpan shell type

    o conf make /usr/bin/make o conf commit
