This can't work when you add a path to @INC on runtime.
BEGIN {
unshift @INC,'/path/...';
}
Do you mean you have to put it in a BEGIN block to work?
Yes. Because all 'use' statements are executed at compile time, adding
directories to the path at run time is of no use: by then Perl will have
looked in the directories in the unmodified @INC list and either failed
to find the module or loaded a different copy of it.
