To install the script and man pages in the standard areas, give the sequence of commands
$ perl Makefile.PL
$ make
$ make test
$ make install # you probably need to do this step as superuser
If you want to install the script in your own private space, use
$ perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/joeuser \
INSTALLMAN1DIR=/home/joeuser/man/man1 \
INSTALLMAN3DIR=/home/joeuser/man/man3
$ make
$ make test
$ make install # can do this step as joeuser
Note that `make test` does nothing interesting.
Under a user with sufficient permissions and from the program distribution directory, execute
perl Makefile.PL
if there isn't a file called Makefile. Then execute
make uninstall
This sometimes works, and sometimes it does not. If it refuses to work, you can simply remove all files by hand. Look for the .packlist file which perl created when installing the software and remove all files you find in there.
The user scripts can be packaged independently in a bare tarball (no Makefile), which may be easier for some users to install. This can be generated by executing
make scripts-dist
