The code below will give you a listing of all the .pm files located under a certain directory path (all subdirectories too). This will at least let you know what's out there, and where it's located. My code also prints to the screen 'cuz I like to see it doin' sumtin...

#!/usr/bin/perl5 -w
#finds all .pm modules on a Unix box
use strict;
use File::Find;

my $report = "LDT_results.txt";

open MYOUTPUT, "> $report" or die "Can't open $report: $!";
my @directories = ("/usr/local/lib");
my @foundfiles;

# Collect all .pm files below each directory in @directories
# and put them into @foundfiles
find ( sub { push @foundfiles, $File::Find::name if /\.pm$/ },
       @directories);

#and print them to my file "LDT_results.txt"

print "$_\n" for @foundfiles;
print MYOUTPUT "$_\n" for @foundfiles;

close MYOUTPUT;

Update:You need to change the shebang line to point to your version of Perl. For example, I'm migrating my 5.0 scripts to 5.8, so I type perl5_8 on the shebang line instead of perl5 like shown in the example above.
