Using modules only available in CPAN - makes the script less portable to other machines?

Asked by lqwest in Perl Programming Language

Tags: ,

Perl's Best Practices book recommends the use of the ReadOnly module which is currently only available from CPAN.

Does this mean if I have a script on one system, and want to use a script that uses a special CPAN modulde, I need to manually install the CPAN module on the other system also? Is there an automated way to do this. OR.... is it just maybe a better idea to only use the modules that come along with standard CPAN?
