Lulu - You can specify which directory you want your modules installed like this:

perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/path-to/your-dir LIB=/path-to/your-dir

Since you're on a *nix system, you can also bypass another installation by doing the following:



cd /path/to/perl/modules

for i in `ls -1`
do
  ln -s `pwd`/$i /path/you/want/sym-link/created/$i
done

This will create sym-links for all the files in the module directory (or whever you want them created)
that you originally wanted them made.

The only reason I do the 'ln -s' route is because you then don't have to recompile/delete/etc.
