I guess I wasn't clear. I want the modules installed in my $HOME directory so that they won't 1) Get lost when a newer OS gets installed - especially with Linux. 2) Get in the way of someone else's, the main geek - my wife's, idea of what should be there. Installation in /usr/local gets me into trouble. $HOME/local/bin and the like is what I want cpan to use for me. Just downloading source and doing any required makes myself seems to work OK except that dependencies get to be a PITA. When the module is all perl code there is really nothing to "make" anyway and I can just reload my $HOME directory from a backup. -- --> From the U S of A, the only socialist country that refuses to admit it. <--
