See here for one primitive way to do this type of thing. Valuing reliability and lower support costs over flexibility, we installed our version of Perl, along with our stable set of CPAN modules, on many different customer machines -- without affecting other versions of Perl that may be installed on their system, and without requiring root permissions. BTW, my manager back then had previously worked at Microsoft, where a broken build cut onto millions of CDs was a total disaster ... their build team became paranoid, going to incredible lengths to avoid breaking the build; they'd even experienced cases where simply installing an OS patch broke their build! ... so their build machines were quarantined from the network, with only the build team allowed to touch them.
