This may be a bit tricky to replicate under windows. PERL5LIB is an
environment variable you can set so that perl will look in that path
for libraries. It's akin to @INC. See perldoc perlrun for more
details. There are a number of ways to set environment variables under
windows, under XP one way would be system
properties/advanced/Enviroment variables.
It sounds like the test is, well not complete, because it has not told
perl where to look and it's in a not standard place.
======== lib/Lingua/test.pl ==============
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Lingua::Stem qw (stem);
my @words = qw(a list of words to be stemmed for testing purposes);
my $stemmed_words = stem(@words);
print join("\n",@$stemmed_words)
================
Try modifying test.pl so it reads:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use FindBin qw($Bin);
use lib q($Bin/../lib)
use Lingua::Stem qw (stem);
...
...
Hopefully that will allow the test to work. Looking at the test, I
would say that it's not critical to the installation and you could
force install.
I hope that helps,
Dp.
