hi guys

 I refered to http://www.catalystframework.org/calendar/2007/8 to
install local::lib into my dreamhost account.

I downloaded the tar file for local-lib and extracted it to a place in
my home dir.
In changed into the directory that local-lib contents lived in.
I ran "perl Makefile.PL --bootstrap PREFIX=/home/kakimoto" -- went OK
I ran "make  test" -- went OK
I ran "make install" and this is the error I got:


[apocalypse]$ make install
mkdir /usr/local/lib/perl: Permission denied at
/usr/share/perl/5.8/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 112
make: *** [pure_site_install] Error 13
[apocalypse]$


I recently installed local::lib on Dreamhost and had a lot of problem, many - but not all - of which were caused by the fact that they kept killing my CPAN install processes. I saved at least a partial log, and this is probably what caused his problem:

-----------------------------
[lakers]$ perl Makefile.PL --bootstrap
Attempting to create directory /home/gshank/perl5
Attempting to create file /home/gshank/perl5/.modulebuildrc
ExtUtils::MakeMaker version 6.31 required--this is only version 6.30_01.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.
CPAN version 1.8 required--this is only version 1.7602.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.
Prototype mismatch: sub ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt ($;$) vs none at -e line 9.

/home/gshank/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm initialized.
--------------------------------

After which it tried to use CPAN to install ExtUtils::MakeMaker. Which didn't work, of course.

I downloaded and installed it myself by hand in the perl5/lib/perl5 directory I think. As I recall, I also had to do that with Module::Build. Then eventually it got half installed and I and updated my .bashrc myself and then... evenutally I got it all working. I had weird problems with CPAN too. I had to end up installing a lot of the modules myself.
