Yes, but I prefer a package in this situation because the code runs on a
Rocks Linux cluster, and customizations to the compute nodes are
conventionally via package; when a new node is added, the suite of local
RPMs is automatically post-installed, et voilà.  I've worked around the
lack of a package in the past, and I'll do it again.  Luckily our nodes
have access to the world.  Now I'm fantasizing about making an RPM that
just customizes CPAN/Config.pm and installs DBD::Pg from CPAN.
