[Koha] Problem with installing perl module

[Mark Tompsett]

Greetings,

First, you didn’t say which operating system you are using, so I am assuming 
a Debian-based one.

Second, why install from CPAN when there is likely a package for it already?
    $ sudo apt-get install libpdf-api2-simple-perl
In fact, frequently libraries can be changed from foo::bar into 
libfoo-bar-perl to install them.

Last, the error message is clear about the problem:
    Can't locate inc/Module/Install.pm in @INC
There is a prerequisite (Module::Install) missing. Whether it is a 
requirement for your building environment or the actual library is not clear 
in the message.

Hopefully, you will find this enlightening and helpful.

GPML,
Mark Tompsett
