Unable to install module from CPAN

Hi ,

I tried to install ExtUtils-CBuilder from CPAN however I get this error :-

CPAN.pm: Going to build D/DA/DAGOLDEN/ExtUtils-CBuilder-0.280202.tar.gz

ExtUtils::MakeMaker version 6.31 required--this is only version 6.30 at Makefile.PL line 7.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 7.
Running make test
Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won't test
Running make install

How do I get to upgrade my MakeMaker from 6.30 to 6.31 ?

Really appreciate your help and ideas how to fix it.

Regards,
Punit

Have you tried installing it the same way as you installed CBuilder?

cpan -i ExtUtils::MakeMaker
