[Catalyst] Rackspace Ubuntu 14.04

[Chris]

I use Pinto to maintain a per-project repository of dependencies (which is
tracked under svn) and install from there into a local::lib.

Deployment is two steps - building the repos in a staging area (via
Makefile.PL and cpanm) and then rsyncing the staging code to the production
location. Works well where there is a single server per deployment.

I previously used Carton but found that Pinto manages dependencies better
and has been generally easier to use.
