Is there a way to have multiple users on a server using the perl at
/usr/local/bin/perl and yet have their own personal perl modules that
the other users can't see?
I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to allow multiple users to
install any and all perl modules thay may need for development and
testing without interfering with other users.
We have cases where someone may install dozens of perl modules for
testing and then find out they are not needed after all. We also have
cases where we'd like to try installing newer versions of modules
without breaking someone else's code.
Not sure if there is a way to do this short of installing a separate
perl for each user. That would be a nightmare.
During module install you can specify an alternate location to install
the module using LIBS=/path/to/your/perlmods like this:
perl Makefile.PL LIBS=/home/jdoe/perlmods
but if I'm correct, I think these perl modules will be seen by everybody
on the server. Can someone clarify this?
