I remember now -- this is a feature. 8-)
If you don't want MiniVend put in your normal bin when you install
as root, you need to make with:
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/usr/local/minivend
This allows minivend to go into the system directory where it would
normally belong. If you check the paths for the executable in /usr/bin,
they should be correct.
