I guess this confuses me a bit.... Since the OSX box already has a version of perl that comes with it, then there is a canonical version of perl that is available that would allow one to know where it is putting site_local modules - hence why not install them there? rather than into an additional library that would require setting an environmental variable? Or the alternative - rebuild perl to have that added to the @INC so that perl knows it by 'default'???? ciao drieux --- ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
