I stole Andy's idea and add a functoin into my .kshrc.
function perlch {
  pm=$1
  dir=$(echo $pm | sed 's/::/\//g')
  perl -M$pm -le "print $pm, ' = ' ,\$INC{'$dir.pm'}"
}

Then I can perlch
$ perlch DBD::Oracle
DBD::Oracle =
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i686-linux-thread-multi/DBD/Oracle.pm

Thanks Andy,
