in reply to How to install a DarkPAN module?

See the bit:

[MSG] No '$HOME/.cpanplus/custom-sources' dir, skipping custom sources

That's a clue! You probably want to read CPANPLUS and custom_sources, which will explain things far better than I ever could. Executive summary: you place your tarball in a directory or on the web somewhere, and then tell CPANPLUS where it is.
