The FPG mandates perl-CPAN as package name for the module if you would
want to split CPAN into a separate package (perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker also
would make sense).

However, pay attention to the versions being involved: 
A perl-CPAN package would be required to carry the version of the CPAN
module, not the version of the perl-rpm.

Unfortunately choosing different "versions" from inside of one spec
isn't easily doable from inside of one spec.
