I don't mean to sound mean, or anything. But You've already been told what the problem is:

Permission denied
Should it not already be obvious to you; this is a system error. Your system (the one your building this on) is trying to tell you that you don't have write privileges to the directory you are attempting to write to.

I'ts also possible that "Perl", itself is associated with some user/group, and wouldn't have permission. But, in almost any case, it's you, the user, whos permissions are inherited, that determine what can, and cannot be done on the system.

Perhaps doing an su before attempting the install?

UPDATE: I should also add; that you can also make the install, install to a lib within your home directory.

make install PREFIX=~/lib
assuming that the directory lib already exists within your ~ (Home) directory.
