Hi Magnus, I had already started looking into this option. I have done as you said: [root@lou ~]# perl -E 'say for @INC' /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 . [root@lou ~]#echo $PERL5LIB [root@lou ~] I then amended my .bashrc to amend the two existing lines and added the PERL5LIB line: PERL_MB_OPT="--install_base \"/usr/local/share/perl5\""; export PERL_MB_OPT; PERL_MM_OPT="INSTALL_BASE=/usr/local/share/perl5"; export PERL_MM_OPT; PERL5LIB="/usr/local/share/perl5"; export PERL5LIB; I then logged out, back in, and checked everything looked good. I then tried the new setup by using CPAN to 'install CPAN'. At the end I got 'OK' but when I tried to 'reload cpan' it still loaded 1.9800 when it should have installed 2.6 [root@lou ~]# perl -E 'say for @INC' /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 . [root@lou ~]# echo $PERL5LIB /usr/local/share/perl5 [root@lou ~]# cpan cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.9800) Enter 'h' for help. cpan[1]> install CPAN Reading '/root/.cpan/Metadata' Database was generated on Mon, 11 Mar 2019 11:57:00 GMT Running install for module 'CPAN' Running make for A/AN/ANDK/CPAN-2.25.tar.gz Checksum for /root/.cpan/sources/authors/id/A/AN/ANDK/CPAN-2.25.tar.gz ok Scanning cache /root/.cpan/build for sizes ..........................................................................--DONE DEL(1/7): /root/.cpan/build/Module-CoreList-5.20190220-NXpphv DEL(2/7): /root/.cpan/build/Module-CoreList-5.20190220-NXpphv.yml DEL(3/7): /root/.cpan/build/Module-Load-Conditional-0.68-owZpE0.yml DEL(4/7): /root/.cpan/build/Module-Load-Conditional-0.68-owZpE0 DEL(5/7): /root/.cpan/build/IPC-Cmd-1.02-1B6cBN DEL(6/7): /root/.cpan/build/ExtUtils-CBuilder-0.280230-w3Bagt.yml DEL(7/7): /root/.cpan/build/IPC-Cmd-1.02-1B6cBN.yml CPAN.pm: Building A/AN/ANDK/CPAN-2.25.tar.gz Importing PAUSE public key into your GnuPG keychain... done!
