Are you having problems installing Math::Pari, or Net::SSH::Perl?

If Net::SSH::Perl can't find Math::Pari, then you should be able to fix
that by adding the Math::Pari install directory to the PERL5LIB
environment variable.

If Math::Pari can't find the PARI library, you may have to indeed change
its Makefile.PL; this is not the right list to ask about Math::Pari in
general, but we'll do our best to help.

In general the prerequisites for Net::SSH::Perl can be a pain in the
neck to install and I sympathize.
