Unless I can apt-get install or cpan|cpanm without error, I get frightened off by perl module installations. I'm a bit better at it. I can handle minor issues. But when it gets to more involved, I'm in over my head. I've read some stuff over the years about installing Perl modules from scratch but it all gets forgotten as I just rely on the tools that do it all for me. And then, when I do get my hands dirty, it seems inevitably something goes wrong and I end up making things a confusing mess for myself.
