cpan -u don't know our perl version

I am using WHM 11.52.2 (build 4) and perl 5.8.8. When using command cpan -u or cpan -O, it doesn't know which is our perl version. It list and try to update to latest modules version of perl 5.22.1. Is these normal behavier?

I try to update all perl modules for 5.8.8. I think cpan -u command don't have a separate lists for each perl versions. cpan -u get the latest module version. Some of them are for perl 5.22.1 only. In WHM's Module Installers interface (Home >> Software >> Module Installers) too, some of them are for perl 5.22.1 and can't install.

Could you elaborate on the specific issue you are facing? For instance, do you have a script with a required Perl module that's failing with a specific error message? Thank you.
