You can do this by tweaking the RPM spec file. Look for "%install" - this is the set of instructions to tell the RPM build process how to run "make install" to put files into a subtree that can then be rolled up in the .i386.rpm binary package.

In the spec file I have floating around (ancient; I've been using Dag Wieers' package for a while now), there's a line there beginning with %makeinstall. Add "INSTALLDIRS=site" to the end of that line, and rebuild. The package should install without error now, and MD has a specific change (added ~2.48 IIRC) to make sure it looks in site_perl for modules before it looks elsewhere.

Thanks for the pointer. that did the trick...mostly. I still had to resolv
the man page's conflict but it seems to be working now.
