Oh, yeah, and I suppose the same is true for Python when it comes
to installing modules for that as well. I almost never use Python,
so the stock Slcakware packages are fine for me for that, but Perl I
always use a locally installed version, and so completely forget that
this would be a problem, but you're right. It needs to be considered.
(just the "site_perl" directory needs to be symlinked, right?)
