Um, see Re: My favorite pitfall: setting up CPAN / lib / Re: Bundling a Distribution of Multiple Modules or please help me make the install process easier, in short

perl foo-bar-bar-1.2.3/bin/foobarbar.pl --host 127.0.0.1 --port 666

perl foo-bar-bar-1.2.3/bin/foobarbar.pl -l http://localhost:666

foo-bar-bar-1.2.3/bin/foobarbar.exe

Thanks.

The target layout is pretty clear by now, and I even know what I'd have to do when doing it "by hand".

What I'm trying to do now is to coax MakeMaker into doing it for me (bonus points if it does a "stage install" by default, so as not to thrash the "hot" installation).

If you're referring to Appending $VERSION to package name in Makefile.PL or Re^2: Appending $VERSION to package name in Makefile.PL, that is the wrong thing to do

[oldtomas]

Hi. I'm sorry I don't understand. By

that is the wrong thing to do

you mean: "coaxing Makefile.PL to do the library install to a different lib is the wrong thing to do?"

If yes: could you elaborate? If no: what is the wrong thing to do?

Thanks
