"Using Perlbrew macOS impossible to install distributions" That's an erroneous generalisation. I've been installing Perl distributions on macOS (previously Mac OS X) since either v10.5.x or v10.6.x; the latest was on v10.12.5. I think "High Sierra" is v10.13.x: I don't have this upgrade yet, but I haven't encountered any reports of specific Perlbrew problems with this macOS version. I currently have all of these distributions installed:
So, that includes the 5.22.0 you say you're having problems with; maybe there are others in that list which you've tried as well (you didn't specify what others you'd tried). "To start using Perlbrew, I open the Terminal and write source ~/perl5/perlbrew/etc/bashrc" I've never needed to do this; although, to be perfectly honest, I'm not entirely sure what you mean by this (I can make an educated guess, but it's still only a guess). If you put command line commands and output within <code>...</code> tags, as I did with "perlbrew list" above, it'll make what you're actually doing a lot clearer. Almost at the end of my "~/.bash_profile", I have:
My "~/.bashrc" starts with:
Perhaps you need something similar to this. You can also take a look at this post of mine from last month: the underlying issue is unrelated to your problem but it does show how I normally perform installations. When I use this method, "everything works for me out-of-the-box". — Ken
