The environment variable you should be setting is called PERL5LIB.
First make sure you have 'version' installed correctly, by running
perl -Mversion -e 1
and if that fails then set PERL5LIB to the path where you believe
version.pm to be. If that still fails then manually reinstall 'version'
manually and look at the log for 'make install' - somewhere it will tell
you where it has installed the version.pm file, and PERL5LIB should be
set to the path to that file. If you can't get it working then post the
complete 'make install' log on here and we will help you.
One you have 'version' installed in your private path, manually
reinstall Text::Balanced using the same value for prefix. Then make sure
you still have Perl5LIB set and run
perl -MText::Balanced -e 1
which should now work. If this fails then post your complete 'make
install' log on here, and say what value you have PERL5LIB set to.
