It seems the task we're asking of our customer is not for the faint of heart as it involves a lot of command line operations, an understanding of their web server installation, and the ability to install mod_perl and some number of Perl modules on which our software depends. Standing at the foot of this documentation and installation script mountain, we're looking for trails blazed by those who have come before. So, can anyone point me at other software with these requirements and their solution to this problem? Particularly ones that have handled theses issues well? Alternately, do you think our approach is fundamentally unsound for our intentions? Is there a better way to write and distribute Apache modules?
