They are regular perl modules. They only run under mod_perl though. :-)
If you can, use the CPAN shell to install modules, (see 'perldoc CPAN')
Otherwise, download and extract the module then change into its
directory. Read the README and INSTALL files. Then - assuming those
files don't say differently - type
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
And if you're happy with the results, su to root and type
make install
Hope this helps.
