Please see the configuration schema if you want to write config your self. You can see schema like below.

perldoc CPAN::Packager::Config::Schema

Configure CPAN mirrors

CPAN::Packager downloads modules from cpan_mirrors if you set CPAN mirror uri in your config.

---
global:
  cpan_mirrors:
    - http://ftp.funet.fi/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/
    - file:///home/dann/minicpan

Use cpan-packager with minicpan

You can use minicpan with CPAN::Packager. At first, you mirror CPAN modules with minicpan.

minicpan -r http://ftp.funet.fi/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/ -l ~/minicpan

Set cpan mirrors uri in your config if you want to use minicpan. after that you just use cpan-packager ;)

---
global:
  cpan_mirrors:
    - file:///home/dann/minicpan

Additional setup (For debian users)

Copy conf/debian/rules* to ~/.dh-make-perl directory. copying perllocal.pod is conflited if you dont do that.

DESCRIPTION

cpan-packager will create the files required to build a debian or redhat source package out of a perl package. This works for most simple packages and is also useful for getting started with packaging perl modules. Given a perl package name, it can also automatically download it from CPAN.
