Having maintained PAR for five years and written quite a large chunk of the PAR-related tools, let me tell you that it's just not true that PAR is not used for packaging large applications. People from quite a few large and well known companies have contacted me directly for (free and private, sigh) support over the years. At least one of them mentioned that he was using PAR to deploy applications to ~40k computers in the corporation.
Personally, I have packaged applications with a few hundred thousand lines and many, many CPAN modules (Perl & XS) successfully for multiple operating systems.
Is this sufficient?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
