Hi there,
Is it possible to have all the installation files which come from
Crypt-SSLeay-0.51.tar.gz into a specific directory (i.e. the perl
distribution directory such as /usr/perl/)
Yes, if you are installing using the CPAN shell, you can
specify a Makefile.PL argument of PREFIX=/usr/perl. See the
docs for CPAN for details.
So when the perl distribution is moved to another system, packaged with
some application, all the Crypt-SSLeay files would still be there,
instead of having scattered into system /lib and /usr/lib directories?

You could probably do this without any problems for most
modules except those that use binary code. The binary code
modules would have to be re-compiled.
