How do I update CPAN?

[Sherman Willden]

I received the below message. Now what? I am not familiar with install.

Thank you;

  New CPAN.pm version (v2.00) available.
  [Currently running version is v1.9800]
  You might want to try
    install CPAN
    reload cpan
  to both upgrade CPAN.pm and run the new version without leaving
  the current session.

From within the CPAN shell (i.e. issue the cpan command from the commandline) issue the two commands listed below:

install CPAN

Once that's done

reload CPAN

The rest should happen automagically for you.

Thanks,
