I’m upgrading to Fedora 35 which comes with Perl 5.34.  Once a year I
have the same problem –  LMS does not yet support the version of Perl
that Fedora defaults to.  Up until now I’ve delayed upgrading Fedora
until a supported version of LMS is released.

I’ve installed Perlbrew and successfully installed/built Perl 5.32.1 on
my machine. I’ve used 
“perlbrew switch 5.32.1” 
have run “perl -v” and verified that my machine is running Perl 5.32.1

However – I cannot get LMS to start and I can’t find anything meaningful
in the logs. I know that in my standard install I had to create the
following soft link to get LMS to run:

ln -s  /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/.

Could it be something along this line with a link back to my ~/perl5
tree?  Or something else I need to set in my .bashrc or an init script?

I am running LMS 8.0.0 – 1605342997.  I would rather not upgrade it as
some plugins that I depend upon are no longer being maintained and may
break if I do so.  Because of this I’d rather lock my perl version as
long as possible rather than upgrade LMS ti a perl 5.34 compatible
version when one becomes available.

All help is appreciated.
