Assuming that your PERL5LIB were set like:
gax: 81:] setenv PERL5LIB ~/lib/perl5
gax: 82:] perl *.PL
Writing Makefile for URI
gax: 83:]
on a linux like machine - it appears that the double quotes
are preventing shell expansion.... hence the process would be
gax: 89:] !78
perl -I ~/lib/perl5 Makefile.PL LIB=~/lib/perl5 PREFIX=~/lib/perl5
Writing Makefile for URI
gax: 90:]
sorry about that...
what you will find useful would be something like:
### #!/usr/bin/perl -w
### use strict;
### #
### #/home/drieux/bin/PerlInstall - you know to install stuff locally
### #
###
### use lib "$ENV{HOME}/lib/perl";
###
### $ENV{PERL5LIB} = ($ENV{PERL5LIB}) ? "$ENV{HOME}/lib/perl:$ENV{PERL5LIB}
"
### : "$ENV{HOME}/lib/perl";
###
### my $prefix = $ENV{HOME};
### my $lib = "$prefix/lib/perl";
###
###
### my $man = "$prefix/man";
### my $cmdArgs = "PREFIX=$prefix LIB=$lib ";
### $cmdArgs .= " INSTALLMAN3DIR=$man/man3 INSTALLMAN1DIR=$man/man1";
###
### my $cmd = "perl Makefile.PL $cmdArgs";
###
### system("make clean");
###
### system($cmd);
### #system("make test");
### #system("make install");
###
this way I have it stuffed in my home 'bin' directory - for
places when I am working with 'local only' install into my
home directory vice into the canonical CPAN space....
As you will notice this process of not installing into
where your perl will natively find it has problems.....
