+An explanation of why each of these changes were made will follow these instructions.  To tell the default install where your libraries are, well modify docwiki.setup (just another ikiwiki setup file) to add the "libdir" configuration, using ${HOME}/site/perl/lib/perl5 as the value (you'll see this again in your final ikiwiki config).
 
 Next, you'll need to pass the directory where you installed your perl modules (*~/site/perl/ in this example*) into the MakeMaker build script (verbose isn't required, but gives you more feedback since you're following along at home):
 
-    user@server:~/ikiwiki$ perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=~/site/perl/ verbose
-      MAN1PODS => {  }
-      NAME => q[IkiWiki]
-      PM_FILTER => q[./pm_filter $(PREFIX) $(VER) $(PROBABLE_INST_LIB)]
-      PREFIX => q[/home/flophouse/perl/]

+# Make installing OpenID not suck
+If you try to install the Net::OpenID::Consumer module, it takes forever (and for me, fails 90% of the time).  Following the [tip found here](http://www.windley.com/archives/2007/04/speeding_up_cryptdh.shtml), installing the GMP (big math) plugin greatly speeds up the process and makes it, well, work for me.  However, getting this to be used by Perl requires a few more steps.  First, follow the directions [to install GMP](http://gmplib.org/) (grab the package and read the INSTALL doc), but the quick steps are :
+
+    ./configure --prefix=YOUR_INSTALL_PATH_HERE # use something like ${HOME}/usr/local/
+    make
+    make check
+    make install
+
+Then you'll have to add a few variables to your path [referenced by your compiled](http://www.psc.edu/general/software/packages/gcc/manual/gcc_36.html), namely :
+
+    export C_INCLUDE_PATH=YOUR_INSTALL_PATH_HERE/include/
+    export LIBRARY_PATH=YOUR_INSTALL_PATH_HERE/lib/
+
+Then you should be able to install the module, and it'll be faster.
