Randal,

I'm curious about how this works under Debian; do you know?  Is it possible
for Debian users to notify the Debian system that they have installed
perl modules another way?

I would also ask the same question about FreeBSD Ports.  Either of those
could be a guide about how to do this in Fink.

One possibility is to have a simple package "system-perlmodules" which would
simply "Provide" all of the perlmodules on the system (and "Conflict" with
them).  We could start with all of the perlmodules which are there now.
The problem is going to be keeping this up-to-date.  It's basically going
to be someone like you, who will be using this all the time, who would be
able to keep it up to date. Whenever you got a request from Fink to install
a perlmodule, you would know that new ones had been added and you could
update the system-perlmodules package.  Would you know of anyone who would
like to do that job?
