Where to store module-specific read-only data?

Hi, this question is only loosely connected to Module::Build therefore pointers to more focused ressources are welcome. I'm trying to re-pack a small Perl web application from a traditional Makefile to App::Build and modularize it in the process. Part of the application is a rather huge SQLite database that gets generated from text data before installation. In a standard FHS environment, it should probably end up below /usr/share/$WEBAPP. Module::Build does not seem to provide an option to install data there, so: Where do CPAN modules usually store read-only data? Does someone know of a module that I could use for reference? Also I'm interested in modules using Module::Build with such a generation/transformation step in its Build.PL. TIA, Tim
