Just FYI cpan seems to work but does not know to install iCal::Parser. This
is after a completereinstallation of perl and perl-base (maybe a bug in
Ubuntu? Someone else has the same problem?)

This is the log

~$> sudo cpan -i iCal::Parser DateTime

CPAN: Storable loaded ok
Going to read /home/daniel/.cpan/Metadata
Warning: Cannot install iCal::Parser, don't know what it is.
Try the command

    i /iCal::Parser/

to find objects with matching identifiers.
Warning: Cannot install DateTime, don't know what it is.
Try the command

    i /DateTime/

to find objects with matching identifiers.
