Automatic packaging of multiple perl-modules in a major bundleby poulhs (Beadle) |

poulhs has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question: Hi I am responsible for a perl-installation, including modules and best-practices. I intend to select a bunch of perl-modules, create a Bundle:: (or rather, I assume it will be a Task:: ) and create a single package (or rather: one for each architecture/os). This task/bundle should be automatically rebuild with the latest and greatest (but not installed unless all unit-test and other tests succeed). I have done something like this several years ago, using CPAN and a Bundle::, although it was done manually. (all with proper settings of PATH, PERL5LIB, DESTDIR and friends). One major question: Is Module::Install a fair solution, or do you recommend other modules or ways of doing this?
I'm looking for hints/ideas and experiences, as I can find no "best-practices" nor any "HOWTO" on this topic. Any constructive feed-back (and some of the destructive too) will be very appreciated!
