Upgrading Perl via CPAN

Is there a way to upgrade Perl via CPAN? If so, what is the correct syntax to use? Thanks.

Re: Upgrading Perl via CPAN

If you are using a major distribution, I suggest you upgrade using the pakcagemanager the system comes with.

If you still wan't to upgrade via CPAN, then I'm not entirely sure you can.. Doing an 'i perl' doesn't seem to do the entire thing.. Just download the source from the website (perl.org or cpan.org), and compile it manually.
One long-haired git at your service...
