OK, so now it's official. After days and days of fiddling with this, I am totally flustered and losing patience :( Installing modules should in no way be this hard. I finally removed (renamed) my .cpan directory, renamed ~perl and ran "perl -MCPAN -e shell" with default parameters (did not change any directories). Then from the local::lib download directory, I ran " perl Makefile.PL --bootstrap=/my_directory_of_choice" and it was OK. Then I ran "make test && make install" and it was OK too. Then I did "echo 'eval $(perl -I/my_directory_of_choice/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib=my_directory_of_choice)' >>~/.bashrc After this, I go to CPAN shell, and try to install a module by saying " install Acme::Time::Baby " and I get the error below. I will really appreciate help on this. I have been at it for days now, and have been able to get NOTHING done because of this :( Thanks in advance. Andy PS: However when I do "source ~/.bashrc" it says that "Can't open perl script "Mlocal::lib=/my_directory_of choice": No such file or directory" ==Error Begin== Running make install mkdir /usr/local/lib/perl: Permission denied at /usr/share/perl/5.8/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 112 make: *** pure_site_install Error 13 /usr/bin/make install -- NOT OK == Error End ==
