Hi Emmanuel,
if questions about MacOSX have been ushered elsewhere (as they should have
been) I don't really see how this one is even in the ballpark. Maybe I'm a
softie...

Looks like this is the relevant configuration option, but the makepl_arg is
probably going to be more precise than that. If you were going to be doing
this from a command line you'd use something like
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/emm/bin
so I imagine that what you need to use for the makepl_arg may be more like
makepl_arg PREFIX=/home/emm/bin
Well that's a late night guess; the glory (I'm joking!) of MacOSX is that
every owner of such a mac has become a de facto sysadmin, so I haven't
needed to try anything like the above, but have some hope that it's along
the right lines. All my modules are belong to /Library/Perl/. Ha ha ha...
Now get thee to an appropriate list!
Cheers,
Paul
