You must first start "cpan" and then upgrade in the cpan shell itself.
Type "cpan" and when you are on the cpan-shell type "upgrade"

Code:
matrix# cpan
Terminal does not support AddHistory.
cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.9301)
ReadLine support available (maybe install Bundle::CPAN or Bundle::CPANxxl?)

But there are still many things todo and patches to use. So it is not the best choice this time.
