Workaround: Install local::lib manually first:

wget https://cpan.metacpan.org/authors/id/H/HA/HAARG/local-lib-2.000028.tar.gz
tar zxvf local-lib-2.000028.tar.gz
cd local-lib-2.000028
perl Makefile.PL --bootstrap
make
make test
make install
perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

I think the problem was that make was not installed. At least that should make make fail with "Command not found" when installing local::lib?
