perlbrew installation can't find Cwd.pm

wanna_code_perl has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello Monks!

I've never had this problem before:

$ wget -O - https://install.perlbrew.pl | bash
[...snip normal wget output...]
## Download the latest perlbrew

## Installing perlbrew
Using Perl </usr/bin/perl>
Can't locate Cwd.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Cwd module) (
+@INC contains: /usr/local/share/perl/5.22.1/x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-m
+ulti /usr/local/share/perl/5.22.1 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-li

+l/5.22) at perlbrew.ytTuXk line 7.

Seems @INC is a little messed up, here. Cwd.pm exists, and works fine when I use it manually with the system Perl (5.22, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS) in /usr/bin/perl:

$ locate Cwd.pm
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base/Cwd.pm
$ perl -MCwd -le 'print cwd()'
/home/wcp
$ uname -a
Linux localhost 4.9.50-x86_64-linode86 #1 SMP Thu Sep 14 19:28:20 UTC 
+2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Any ideas on what might have broken, here?

I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04.1, and I get two different paths to `Cwd.pm` when I run `locate Cwd.pm`. I get the following paths, `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.22.1/Cwd.pm /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base/Cwd.pm` [download] You seem to be missing this one, `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.22.1/Cwd.pm` [download] which is provided by the `libperl5.22` package. Is the `libperl5.22` package installed on your system?	[reply] [d/l] [select]

`$ perl -MCwd -le 'print cwd()'` The following would be more useful: `/usr/bin/perl -MCwd -le'print $INC{"Cwd.pm"};'` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]


Do you know where your variables are?
