One of the longstanding annoyances, at least for me, has been that
git installs its perl modules in /usr/share/perl5 instead of
somewhere below /usr/lib.
With the new-style perl install, a lot more (plain) perl modules are
installed, both in /usr/share/perl5/core_perl/ and in
/usr/share/perl5/site_perl/ : I hope to get those moved back to the
corresponding places in /usr/lib, experiment has started.
But there is one other set of modules installed in /usr/share/perl5,
Git and its dependencies. These come with git (we used to
separately preinstall Error and Mail::Address but we agreed to let
it install those itself). The location is defined in the Makefile,
but it looks as if the following will put them in
/usr/lib/perl5/5.32/site_perl :
sed -i 's%\(^perllibdir = \).*%\1/usr/lib/perl5/5.32/site_perl%' Makefile
For the moment I'm just mentioning this, at least uintil the 507
core and 1419 site modules from my current build can be moved in my
next build. The site_perl are primarily biber and its deps, also
SGMLS, ImageMagick and non-book Mojolicious.
