If you want to create links, there are numerous ways to do it. For example:

If your original perl distribution is at:

/usr/local/lib/perl

and you want to link it to /usr/local/perl

just do this:

ln -sf /usr/local/lib/perl /usr/local/perl

(note that /usr/local/perl SHOULD NOT EXIST before
the command above).

This will create a symbolic link from /usr/local/lib/perl
(a directory) to the /usr/local/perl directory

You can also use symbolic links on individual files.
