If you're doing a demo, then I'd advise against installing over the production distributions.
Create your own perl and Apache's. Philippe Chiasson wrote a paper for either ApacheCon or PerlCon about managing multiple modperl developers. If I recall correctly, each developer had their own Perl and Apache's living in each user's home directory with a CVS checkout of the latest application code. Before they were rolled out in production, he could then test against his copy of the current production environment. John [EMAIL PROTECTED]
