Re: [Catalyst] Testing with 5.8 and 5.9 on one system
Either perlbrew or local::lib should work perfectly for what you want to do. Cheers t0m On 18 Sep 2012, at 10:35, Geovanny Junio :: eutsiv wrote: Do you know perlbrew?

Re: [Catalyst] Testing with 5.8 and 5.9 on one system
Hi folks Thanks for both of these. What I've done so far, in case anyone else ends up with something like this: 1. Partial rehearsal on one of my own systems! 2. Used local::lib to get Catalyst in local_perl in my home directory though I think might be able to just use Makefile.pl with PREFIX? 3. [Happily] there's a module preload in the application which sets some 'extra' @INC values so I've pushed my local Catalyst directory onto the 'front' of that... The application logging now reports that the local version is loading, so this seems pretty viable. Of course the actual remote system may be a different matter, we'll see...

Instead you should just set the environment variables that local::lib tells you before running Makefile.PL (unless I'm misunderstanding you).
