Hi, folks:

I am trying to install Crypt::DES in my Linux account which I don't have the root. Previously, I will install Perl modules by 'perl Makefile.PL && make', then copy the resulting .pm file to a place(i.e. /path/to/mylib) that I can declare later in my Perl program with

use lib qw /path/to/mylib ;

But after I finish 'make', some other files besides the DES.pm are generated and can not neglect, i.e. 
  blib/arch/auto/Crypt/DES/DES.dll
  blib/arch/auto/Crypt/DES/libDES.dll.a
  blib/arch/auto/Crypt/DES/libDES.bs

[download]

I know with 'configure', I can use --prefix to specify the installation destination, but how can I do the same with perl 'Makefile.PL', given that I dont have the root to copy files outside of my own home directory..

Thanks for your help

Hao...:-)
