We should have stuck with Perl. I never came across the same problems with CPAN.

CPAN I think only recently got virtualenv-like support; before it was much worse and a pain. Where CPAN modules shine are they're more stable, backwards compatible, and extensible. Modules whose last release was 15 years ago work fine today, and new modules are extended on them.
