I have a script that I want to migrate over to another box for testing from my development box. Eventually, this script will be used by people everywhere and I would prefer to make it very user friendly when they want to install it. This script, like most other scripts, uses CPAN modules. It just happens that the test box I want to move my script over to does not have all of the modules I need. This is what got me to thinking. Would it be or is it possible to create a bundle somehow from some perl command or some other module that actually looks in my script at the modules I am using and bundles those modules with my script into a tarball. This way my script can be distributed to anybody with all of the stuff required to make it work right there.

Is there something like this out there already? If so, what is it and how can I use it? tilly suggested I can make a bundle but just have no idea how to do that quickly and benignly.
