You are on to the right track, but the module in question is a compiled binary, which means you are not going to be able to distribute an identical version of your app for a different platform. You'll have to have an "installer" script unpack and compile the module (perhaps in your local dir location).

I can report that I package up several CPAN modules into a local ./Modules directory so that I can easily move the entire local dir tree up for packaging and installation onto different machines. However, I am fortunate to be installing on to identical hardware.
