If the machine you are using can connect to the Internet, you should
really use CPAN to do the install (it takes care of the Perl
dependencies).  Try running

perl -MCPAN -e "install Text::Balanced"

Answer with the default for most questions.  When you get to the part
where it asks you

Paramaters for the 'perl Makefile.PL' command?
Typical frequently used settings:

    PREFIX=~/perl      non-root users (please see manual for more hints)

Your choice:   [INSTALLDIRS=site]

type in PREFIX=/u/basappas/local/perl/perm_install

You should be able to use the defaults for the rest
