I do a bit of perl programming (am JONASS on CPAN) and am a Debian 
developer as well.

I use cpanm occationally on my developer laptop, but on production 
servers I only use Debian packages.  I might "cheat" and install 
backported packages or even unofficial .deb packages, but never 
"side-installed" code on production servers.  Reason is that I want a 
single place to keep track of all code installed on the system: APT.

You might consider ask your question at the debian-perl mailinglist, as 
you are more likely to reach Perl folks there, I guess.
