Its not a good idea to try to unpack packages directly into the lib
directory. You should unpack in a temporary directory and follow the
installation instructions, which usually consists of the following
possibly with a few variations/additions:
perl Makefile.PL
$(make)
$(make) test
$(make) install
With suitable substitutions for $(make).
Of course, if you have configured the CPAN module, it could be as simple
as:
cpan install Apache2::SOAP
