My version of CPAN runs on Ubuntu 16 and I had the same problem you seem to be having. I'm not sure how to fix it for html2text, but I do know how I got lynx runnning on my version of CPAN and the problem was solved.

From a CPAN prompt run:

o conf

Does it show a configuration variable lynx?

lynx undef

Then it is easy to fix, I'm pretty sure.

o conf lynx /usr/bin/lynx

Then:

o conf commit

This will work if lynx is installed at /usr/bin/lynx . Otherwise substitute the right location. /usr/pathto/lynx. Hope it helps.
