/usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=site -- NOT OK

It might be useful to know just why that command is "NOT OK". Can you cd to the top level source directory of one of these modules that you're trying to build and run (as root) /usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=site

What error does that produce ?

Cheers,
