Installation & Config
For Perl Programmers : only
Have you ever wished that you could have more than one version of a Perl module installed on your system, and that you could easily tell Perl exactly which one you wanted to load? Perhaps you have some legacy programs that only run with older versions of certain modules, while the rest of your system is coded to the more-modern versions of the same module. Or maybe you administer a multiuser system, where your various users request different module versions.

While installing Apache without root privileges is easy, one should know how to install Perl modules in a nonsystem-wide location. In this article, I'll demonstrate ways to complete this task.
