Hi There! I installed perl modules from cpan using the CPAN module. The new stuff is now stored under /usr/local/lib/site_perl. Problem is if those modules are present under /usr/lib/perl5/5.005 (normally in an outdated version) those are used.
Well no wonder in that because my perl says: @INC = /usr/lib/perl5/5.005/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.005 /usr/local/lib/site_perl/i386-linux /usr/local/lib/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5 . Question A: Where are those paths defined? ($PERLLIB and $PERL5LIB are not set!) Question B: May i run into problems when actually using the newer locals? Would it be safe to set: @INC = /usr/local/lib/site_perl/i386-linux /usr/local/lib/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.005/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.005 /usr/lib/perl5 . Question C: Could anybody tell me, why the Perl-Module-Tree seems to be such a mess? Where can i find out about it's inherent logic?
