Phemto has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi there. I have two package files: Cloud.pm and Lens.pm.

Both are located in the same directory, and I'm using "use lib" to point to that directory. Lens.pm contains the code

use lib "...module_directory..."; $VERSION = 0.01; @ISA = qw(Exporter Cloud);
My main program contains the same use lib line. When I "use Cloud" from the program it finds it just fine, but when I "use Lens" I get: Can't locate package Cloud for @Lens::ISA at... There must be something obvious that I'm missing. Thinking the "use lib" line wasn't doing what I thought it was, I've also tried moving the files to my current directory so they'd be in @INC, but that didn't fix it.

I'm losing my hair fast enough as it is without this making me pull it out :)
