Is it just me or is there a reason that you haven't simply
done the canonical
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=~/lib/perl5
to begin with????
We generically agree on 'do not compile as root' - and that
you should think about having the
/usr/local/lib/perl5 || /usr/lib/perl5
owned by your 'group' so that you can install based upon
your group permission - or the older *nix hack of just
allowing it to be world writable - no longer advocated -
or have a PerlGeeks group so that all of the PerlGeeks
can whack in what they find amusing????

Patrick now that you are on the fast track to hell -
what you will also want to get into is:
vladimir: 62:] cat base*
Digest-MD5-2.16
HTML-Parser-3.26
HTML-Tagset-3.03
MIME-Base64-2.12
URI-1.18
libnet-1.11
libwww-perl-5.64
vladimir: 63:]
so that you can move on to doing things you would have
done with rsh/rlogin as webLets....
