Thank you for the reply.
The <company>-perl-Module-Build solution works well for my simple scenario. But I don't think it scales to more than two perl's on one machine. What if I have the system perl (perl-5.8.x), developer perl 1 (perl-5.10) and developer perl 2 (perl 5.12). What is a good way to deal with this? I think taking the RPM naming approach to its logical conclusion means I end up with three packages for the same module, one for each version of perl. Is this what people actually do? I can see the advantage but it seems like a hell of a lot of duplication of effort.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
