[Chicago-talk] Installing another Perl on same box

Hi,
I need to install a non-threaded version of Perl in addition to the distro
provided threaded version (Debian Sarge).
I've read the INSTALL that comes with my Perl source (5.8.4). And it seems
like I can make it so that the non-threaded can use all the pure Perl modules
already installed.
So I did
sh Configure -Dprefix=/opt/perl -des
make && make test
I've been holding off the "install" to make sure I don't F'up my box
below are the things I think one would need to know about the current distro
install.
Questions:
1) does everything look like it will work fine?
2) after install with my new Perl be able to find the existing pure Perl
modules, by default? Or will I always need to alter my PERL5LIB or @INC to
find the installed modules?
thanks
Jay
