Thanks for the report.

I have shortened it to the above lines which show, it is the module
Net::FTP which doesn't succeed, not 'ftp'. The 'ftp' program is not
called in your example.

You can skip Net::FTP by doing some equivalent of

  $CPAN::Config->{dontload_hash} = { 'Net::FTP' => 1 };

in your CPAN/Config.pm or CPAN/MyConfig.pm. If you do that, you will
not have the timeout problem anymore.


Hope that helps,
