I used to work like this but having to actively watch updates to ensure 
that things depending on perl being on the system would still work 
happily when they decided that perl needed an update which overwrote the 
CPAN installed version of perl which invariably gets installed as a 
dependency somewhere down the track.

Destroying your package management to install something that is 
available via the packaging system seems a little.. odd.
