 I think it's advisable to follow the recommendation in

    perldoc -q "own module"

 and use both the PREFIX and LIB options.

 Usually I install Perl modules as root, but as a learning exercise I
installed version and Text::Balanced as a usual user. The log from the
installation follows below.

Thanks. Looks like the install is successful.

Yes, it was.

But I see one difference
between the install for Algorithm/Permute and Text-Balanced.
In the installed path of Permute, I can see site_perl and 5.8.5:
/u/basappas/local/perl/balanced_install/lib/perl5

Whereas in case of Text-Balanced, I dont see site_perl listed.
Did I miss any step:
/u/basappas/local/perl/balanced_install/lib/perl5

Here is how the installation went through:
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/u/basappas/local/perl/balanced_install

I had a significantly simpler path to the modules, and the reason is that I also used the LIB option when building Makefile. Is that what you mean?
