If the 'LIB' suggestion doesn't work can you post the "# --- MakeMaker constants section:" section of the 'Makefile'.... If all else fails you should be able to hack the install directories you need directly into the Makefile. http://danconia.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
