You may want to check the following paradigm (from another open source
perl-based application) to create a Perl environment within your system,
avoiding to tamper with it:
https://metacpan.org/pod/App::Netdisco#Installation
We are running it in production for years and has been great in
maintenance and operation (despite my initial fears).
Alternatively, you can use a container. See for example:
https://linuxcontainers.org/
