Weird, eh?
Not really. Perl's ability to easily change where modules are loaded
from, great for developers; sometimes creates a mess when modules were
sometimes installed as root (or using sudo), and in custom or local user
based paths other times.
The key to testing the examples is to always test from the immediate
parent directory of ./Examples. Since they all have this line to modify
the search path for modules.
use lib '../lib';
But as I said, my High Sierra VM was a virgin fresh install. I installed
F::Q using sudo in MyConfig.pm, then updated Module::Load also with the
sudo based MyConfig. Fetching data did not work until I updated
Module::Load. I think the version that came installed on High Sierra was
.24 or something else quite lower than .36.
