> cpm install --target-perl 5.8.5

# resolve distribution names from DARKPAN/modules/02packages.details.txt.gz
# and fetch distibutions from DARKPAN/authors/id/...
> cpm install --resolver 02packages,http://example.com/darkpan Your::Module
> cpm install --resolver 02packages,file:///path/to/darkpan    Your::Module

# use darkpan first, and if it fails, use metadb and normal CPAN
> cpm install --resolver 02packages,http://example.com/darkpan --resolver metadb Your::Module

# specify types/phases in cpanfile by "--with-*" and "--without-*" options
> cpm install --with-recommends --without-test
