It seems standard on Debian:
Code:
libxml-xpath-perl:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 1.13-7
  Version table:
     1.13-7 0

and on Fedora:
Code:
Name        : perl-XML-XPath
Arch        : noarch
Version     : 1.13
Release     : 22.fc19
Size        : 82 k
Repo        : fedora/19/x86_64
Summary     : XPath parser and evaluator for Perl
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/XML-XPath/
License     : GPL+ or Artistic
Description : This module aims to comply exactly to the XPath specification at
            : http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath and yet allow extensions to be added in
            : the form of functions. Modules such as XSLT and XPointer may need
            : to do this as they support functionality beyond XPath.

One does need to use the package manager to install it.

Perhaps I misunderstood what you mean by non-standard ... cheers, drl

Something that doesn't require root access to deal with. Something that you can expect to work dependably. You might as well have asked him to install a third-party utility.

I keep a number of perl modules local to my home, not requiring the package manager. I generally don't put anything into /bin, /user/bin, etc., unless it is in the repositories. For many other things that may need to be accessible (say for loading, linking), I use my library directory:
Code:
$ ls ~/lib
perl/  python/	readme.txt  tcl/

and:
Code:
/home/drl/lib/perl/		|-- RegExp
|-- Acme			|-- Rmyegexp
|-- Algorithms			|-- Sample.pm
|-- App				|-- Sort
|-- Array			|-- String
|-- Data			|-- T2t
|-- Date			|-- Tabs.pl
|-- DateTime			|-- Term
|-- Excel			|-- Text
|-- File			|-- Version
|-- Getopt			|-- backup
|-- HTML			|-- cva.pm
|-- IO				|-- lib.pm
|-- Lingua			|-- nposw.pl
|-- Math			|-- old-T2t
|-- Module			|-- parse_csv.pl
|-- MyWrap.pl			|-- pqs.pl
|-- Pod				|-- prutil.pl
|-- RCS				`-- yinfo.pl
|-- Random			28 directories, 10 files

This seems somewhat off-topic here, so we could continue this elsewhere if useful ... cheers, drl
