Package: perl
Version: 5.8.8-7
Severity: normal
"o conf" says that I have the following:
makepl_arg LIB=~/lib/site_perl INSTALLMAN1DIR=~/man/man1
INSTALLMAN3DIR=~/man/man3
Note: these variables correspond to what is documented in the
CPAN(3perl) man page:
5) I am not root, how can I install a module in a personal directory?
You will most probably like something like this:
o conf makepl_arg "LIB=~/myperl/lib \
INSTALLMAN1DIR=~/myperl/man/man1 \
INSTALLMAN3DIR=~/myperl/man/man3"
But I get the following error:
cpan> install Math::MPFR
[...]
Running make install
mkdir /usr/local/man: Permission denied at
/usr/share/perl/5.8/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 112
make: *** [pure_site_install] Error 13
/usr/bin/make install UNINST=1 -- NOT OK
because cpan wants to install the man pages in /usr/local/man instead
of ~/man.
