This is a problem with your perl installation, not related to the module you're trying to install. strict.pm is part of perl. If perl can't find it, it suggests your installation is somehow broken. Without more information, it's impossible to give you more help. What system are you using ? How was perl installed ?

What does that mean? Don't start overcomplicating things, by adding another perl version, a development version!, you are running 5.18.2 that should be fine!

This is a problem with your perl installation or your cpan configuration. Most solutions consist of just re-installing Perl. See http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=1080639 If the problem is only with cpan, but not with e.g.: perl -Mstrict -e'1;' it should be sufficient to re-configure cpan, start cpan then o conf init. Most likely, your perl include path contains an inaccessible directory, you can reproduce the behavior the follwing way:

mkdir -p /tmp/dontyou
chmod 000 /tmp/dontyou/
ls /tmp/dontyou
ls: dontyou: Permission denied
perl -I '/tmp/dontyou/' -Mstrict -e'1'
Can't locate strict.pm:   /tmp/dontyou/strict.pm: Permission denied.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

What did you do ? Did you check permissions on the directories as suggested ?

As another thing to look at, the presence of /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18.2/x86_64-linux and /storage/mayank/perlinstallation/lib/perl5/5.18.2/x86_64-linux in @INC makes me think that you may have two conflicting installations of perl. In this case, just use the system one (in /usr/local) and you should be OK (i.e. remove the perl installation in /storage).

I think you need to check your CPAN shell in perl
