Is there a way to figure out a list of all the perl modules installed
on a computer? Regardless of where they may be installed? I don't
want the modules that come with perl, but if the guy installed a cpan
module in a directory with a bunch of modules that came installed
with perl, I just want the cpan module.
And if he put it in a weird directory, I'd need to find those too.
For that, I think your only hope is
find / -name '*.pm'
and filter out installed directories.
Or is it just a matter of going through @INC . . .
Anything in the built-in @INC (other than ".") will be under
/usr/lib/perl5/, and therefore not "weird".
and hoping anything installed isn't getting used through a PERLLIB
environment variable?
Bear in mind that this hypothetical guy you mention may also have added
use lib 'anywhere';
to his scripts.
Are you trying to make a particular set of scripts run on a new
computer, but don't know where said guy buried the modules it needs? If
so, I would try running the scripts and dumping %INC at the end, to find
out which modules, and where they came from.
