Is there a reason why you are not using CPAN.pm to install your modules?

If you still need to do the installation locally, the following sequence will install the modules as if you typed the commands yourself:

use Cwd;
my $package = 'Tie-File-0.96';

sub run {
  my (@command) = @_;
  print "Running @command";
  system(@command) == 0
    or die "Couldn't run : $!";
};

my $old_dir = getcwd;
run("tar", "xvzf", "$module.tar.gz" );
chdir $module
  or die "Couldn't chdir into '$module': $!";
run($^X,"-w","Makefile.PL");
run("make");
run("make","test");
run("make","install");
chdir $old_dir
  or die "Couldn't chdir into '$old_dir': $!";
