in reply to How to bundle up a Perl Install

I recommend doing a local install of the same Perl version you use for development. Compiling and installing your own Perl isn't that hard, see the INSTALL file for what you need to do.

Using local::lib is another alternative if you want to use the available Perl.

Copying a Perl installation is unlikely to work, if you don't have a relocatable Perl (you don't on unixish operating systems) and also are sure that all non-Perl libraries are available on the target machine (also unlikely).

    In theory, as of Perl 5.10, you can have a relocatable Perl even on Unix, if you configure it with -Duserelocatableinc.  Most distros don't compile their perls that way, though...
