Luke as you are aware I am currently trying to complete a set of install scripts to complement the existing (for 1.3) make script that will allow correct installation of lsmb on a new system of any (linux) flavor. It can be extended to work on a windows/bsd/unix platform as well, the only thing required to do so is someone that is prepared to test, and help debug any issues.
Once this suit of scripts is complete, it will allow perl modules to be installed in a slightly better manner. By default installing from distribution vendor packages, and if a package is not available then via CPAN. Other options should be easily added, if there are any. This is all customizable per operating system, and in the event that a particular user wants to alter how it is done, or even choose to just have a file generated listing modules that need to be installed, they can do so. At this time it is written as a console based script, but could easily have a web front end added. I would be interested on everyones thoughts for this.
