Hi All,

Does anyone know the proper way to install a Perl module on Linux that loads several shared libraries? For standard libs that comes with Perl, the .so files are in the ${PERL_HOME}/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto directory. Is this where my libs should go also? I do not want to depend on LD_LIBRARY_PATH if at all possible. Also, what about managing versions? Is there a document that describes best practices for handling this scenario?

many thanks,

B
