Flogging the horse that left the burning barn ...

There's also what I do for my local stuff ...
# Upgrade Perl for everyone to something recent
# getting 5.8.4 instead of 5.6.1
# (won't be required after Sarge goes Stable)
sudo apt-get upgrade -t testing perl apache mod_perl mysql
# Make a non-system perl lib for the application
export PERLLIB=$HOME/lib/perl
That way the modules I put on my PERLLIB won't infect the root perl, but
my Perl will get the regular bug-fixes applied to Security and/or
Testing.
Alternatively you can take UNSTABLE (SID)'s Perl, but I'm not that
crazy. :-)
