G'day zapatafa,

I strongly advise that you do not attempt to install Bundle::Tk. Following the Bundle-Tk-1.00 link on that page (to its distribution page), you'll see it's:

flagged with ** UNAUTHORIZED RELEASE **
dated 01 Feb 1997 (almost two decades old)

Instead, just install the Tk module, e.g.

cpan[n]> install Tk
[download]

Assess whether you really need (and don't currently have) any of the other modules listed on the Bundle::Tk page. Install these separately if required.

I concur with what ++1nickt says regarding not using the System Perl. I've been using Mac OS X for about five years (various versions between 10.6.x and 10.10.3 [current]); I've used perlbrew with all of them; I currently have seven different Perls installed (not including the System Perl).
