Makefile.PL: Installing multiple scripts and binaries

Question

Given a Makefile.PL, how can I install two binaries and two scripts in four different locations?

To be more precise, the directory structure is as follows:

• lib/my_package/main.pl
• bin/daemon/daemon.pl (*)
• bin/plugin/plugin.pl (*)
• scripts/conf/conf.sh (*)
• scripts/init/initd.sh (*)
• Makefile.PL

The files marked with (*) should be installed in the following paths:

• /usr/sbin/daemon.pl
• /var/qmail/smtpplugins/plugin.pl
• /usr/local/conf.sh
• /etc/init.d/initd.sh

and the contents of my Makefile.PL

use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;

WriteMakefile(
    NAME         => "my_package",
    VERSION_FROM => "lib/my_package/main.pl"
);

What do I tell perl through the Makefile.PL to make it install those four files in their corresponding directories?

If you switch to Module::Build, you can simply use install_path.
