Nitpicking, but that's not how perl installs itself, that's how perlbrew installs & manages perl. If you don't like it, you could try installing perl manually by downloading the tarball & passing your own options to ./Configure, or by running ./Configure interactively. Admittedly those are a bit of a pain, but they'll give you the freedom to install perl in whichever way you want. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
