I've followed steps. And I got my first module installed in ~/perl5lib (great) But ~/perl5lib is not in @INC When I tried perl Makefile.PL instead of perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=~/perl5lib I got this message (after "make install") ------------------ $ make install Warning: You do not have permissions to install into /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386-linux at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 85. mkdir /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/auto: Permission denied at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 139 make: *** [pure_site_install] Error 255 ------------------ Bad thing, isn't it? This made me think. May I use ExtUtils::Install to install any Module in a directory contained in @INC?? I've readen the documentation of ExtUtils::Install, but it's not so clear for me. Is there any way to override this need for permission??? -rm- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ramon Chavez" <ramon.c@sistemedic.com> Cc: <beginners@perl.org> Sent: Tuesday, April 29, 2003 7:45 AM Subject: Re: Installing Modules using SSH > Great. > > I'll try that. > Thank you. > By the way.
