Hi Noel: "ILS" is the generic term for the base directory of the Evergreen source; for example, if you downloaded the Evergreen source files via subversion, the actual directory name might be "trunk" (for the most current development files) or "rel_1_2" (for the 1.2.x branch). If you're using the files extracted from Evergreen-1.2.0-rc4.tar.gz, the files will be in a directory named "Evergreen-1.2.0-rc4". I can add a note to the wiki to explain that more clearly. As for CPAN, you'll find that the source files get placed in a .cpan/ directory under the home directory of the user that you are using to issue the CPAN commands.. In the Gentoo instructions, to avoid conflicting with the system packages, I suggest installing the Perl modules as the opensrf user and set CPAN config variables to place the resulting Perl modules and associated files under the /openils/ directory. -- Dan Scott Laurentian University
