in reply to CPAN client upgrade issues
Going from the data I guess there is a unicode/1252 translation issue and something to do with a module that was written for a UNIX environment not enjoying the Windows world.
Nope, not a chance
The specifics do not matter - I am more than willing for a few modules to prove incompatible in return for access to the whole CPAN archive.
Cool, lets not speak of them again :)
However, what IS annoying is that any single module that fails to compile stops the whole upgrade progress. Is there any way around this happening?
Sure,
cpan-outdated | xargs cpan -i
cpan-outdated -p | cpanm
You can also skip tests and force installs, works for install Module , so would probably work for upgrade (not gonna try it)
cpan[2]> force notest upgrade

Re^2: CPAN client upgrade issues ( keep upgrading if some modules fail tests, cpan-outdated -p | cpanm )( cpan[1]> force notest upgrade )
