in reply to CPAN ERROR: Invalid variable `mark-symlinked-directories'
This is a know error.
You can safely comment this line out of /etc/inputrc :
mark-symlinked-directories If set to `on', completed names which are symbolic links to direct +ories have a slash appended (subject to the value of mark-directories +). The default is `off'.
