Perl v5.18.2 on Fedora 20

perl is already installed on Fedora 20 by default however I wanted to use some of the cpan modules in my programming.

In a terminal window and logged in as root:

root@localhost~]#  yum install perl-CPAN

 Once you get to the cpan prompt do the following:

cpan
install bundle::CPAN
reload cpan
install Text::CSV

 To install additional modules in the future, in a terminal window and logged in as root:

root@localhost~]#  cpan install <your module>
