To safely make Perl modules from CPAN in Solaris, I used this procedure:

mkdir /opt/cpan chmod 777 /opt/cpan chown joe:101 /opt/cpan PERL5LIB=$PERL5LIB:/opt/cpan export PERL5LIB /usr/perl5/bin/perlgcc -MCPAN -e shell

Also, ~/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm specifically had 'makepl_arg' => q[LIB=/opt/cpan PREFIX=/opt/cpan INSTALLMAN3DIR=/opt/cpan/man/man3],

Does this make sense in CentOS as well when the modules just aren't available and using cpan2rpm has me chasing my tail endlessly on deps?

Thanks! jlc

There is tons of perl module RPMs in rpmforge. We also take requests there. Chris
