Thank Roland0 for the great tutorial. I was able to build LMS 7.7.3 with
Perl 5.14.4 , on an PPC based Linkstation running Debian Wheezy

For LMS, I havenot followed the tutorial (download the source
distribution of logitechmediaserver-7.7.X-noCPAN.tgz), but I installed
the packaged .deb file directly. Thus, I don't have to edit the start-up
script, or chown anyfile.

The other modifications I need to do are:
- chmod /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/plugin to 777 (the log file at
/var/log/squeezeboxserver/server.log complained something about could
not write plugins preferences).
- add a symlink from /usr/share/perl5/Slim to
/opt/perl-5.14.4-LMS/lib/5.14.4/Slim (when using the .deb installation
it install this librarry to the default Perl installation, I need to
reference it in the LMS Perl instance)
- for my LMS, I don't need to edit Perl instance in scanner.pl and
slimserver.pl (both in /opt/logitechmediaserver-7.7.2-33893-noCPAN/). I
had to edit squeezeboxserver, squeezeboxserver-cleanup,
squeezeboxserver-scanner (all in /usr/sbin)

Although building Perl and CPAN on my ancient NAS is terrible slow,
everything is good and smooth now. Anyone who run LMS 7.7.x with Perl
5.14.x on PPC could use my compiled binary for saving some time:
