Sorry for misunderstanding. Normally you get perl modules from CPAN like this: $ cpan CGI::Session::Driver::memcached That's usually a safer bet than relying on distro repository. Normally you'd fall back to the repo when there's a conflict of some sort, or it fail to compile. I thought you tried cpan without the -ached part so it could not be found at first.
I disagree, I would thoroughly recommend that if you are using Debian you should always use the packaged version first, and only use CPAN if it isn't packaged. That way you get the added security of the debian security team looking at your bugs, system upgrades don't break your locally installed modules, and a myriad of other reasons. Having said that, for this one, you can either grab the package from sid (unstable) and dpkg -i it on, or use dh-make-perl or as a last resort CPAN it on. It obviously missed the cut for squeeze.
