First, you should check the various RPM repos to see if they host your
module.  It's (often) better to use a packaged version than to grab from
CPAN.  This is doubly true if the module is available from one of the
official CentOS repositories.

If you run cpan (note case) as root, it should install to the correct
places (assuming you trust CPAN).  If you run CPAN as a normal user it
generally won't be able to install to the system directories.  (I think
there's an option for this now, actually, so you could run everything up
to "make install" as a normal user.)

If that still doesn't work, move root's .cpan directory somewhere else
(e.g., mv ~/.cpan ~/cpan-backup) and re-run cpan from scratch.
