[Toolserver-l] using local perl

okay, so installing MediaWiki::API is supposed to be done locally. I'm 
following the instructions:
https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/Perl

The problem is that there's no local Config.pm at the given location. In 
other words, /etc/perl/CPAN/Config.pm in step 3 does not exist. That 
makes it hard to follow step 4 and beyond.

I'm on willow.

And about "no perl experts": I've only spent 10 years writing OO perl, 
I've just always used root access or a CM config that handles packages. 
I recently bought Randal Schwartz a drink- OTOH, Ward Cunningham then 
bought me a drink, so I can't complain.
