--------------------+----------------------
Before we moved to the new-style of perl install, all modules from perl
itself, and almost all modules from BLFS (the exception is Git) were in
/usr/lib/perl5.
With what is currently in the book, a lot of core and other modules are in
/usr/share/perl5{core_perl,site_perl}
Summarising, -Dprivlib is needed to ensre that the default is not used for
the modules that moved to /usr/share, but the default for that is
/usr/lib/perl5/5.32.0 so we ought to change it to match our other changes.
We also need to similarly change sitelib.
xry111 suggested the following, it works nicely:
{{{
sh Configure -des \
-Dprefix=/usr \
-Dvendorprefix=/usr \
-Dprivlib=/usr/lib/perl5/5.32/core_perl \
-Darchlib=/usr/lib/perl5/5.32/core_perl \
-Dsitelib=/usr/lib/perl5/5.32/site_perl \
-Dsitearch=/usr/lib/perl5/5.32/site_perl \
-Dvendorlib=/usr/lib/perl5/5.32/vendor_perl \
-Dvendorarch=/usr/lib/perl5/5.32/vendor_perl \
-Dman1dir=/usr/share/man/man1 \
-Dman3dir=/usr/share/man/man3 \
-Dpager="/usr/bin/less -isR" \
-Duseshrplib \
-Dusethreads
}}}
I have also built several modules (in chroot), git with the sed I will be
proposing for BLFS, and used cpan to install a module. All the modules are
in either /usr/lib/perl5/5.32/core_perl or /usr/lib/perl5/5.32/site_perl.
I think we should make this change ASAP, but I'm not sure that everyone
relevant has read my sometimes-confused threads on the list.
