I had similar problems installing SA 2.60 recently.
The problem is that taint mode, '-T', disables perl's use of PERL5LIB.
Here's part of the "perlrun" documentation:
When running taint checks (either because the
program was running setuid or setgid, or the
-T switch was used), neither variable (PERL5LIB
or PERLLIB) is used. The program should instead
say:
use lib "/my/directory";
This means that if you try to install SA and its prerequisites to a
private directory, things don't work very well. The problem is that
PERL5LIB and using "perl Makefile.PL LIB=<private_dir>" have different
results.
On my setup, if I set PERL5LIB to ~/perldir, and I then run a perl
script that prints out INC, perl expands ~/perldir to 4 directories:
~/perldir/lib/5.6.0/i386-linux:~/perldir/lib/5.6.0:~/perldir/lib/i386-linux:~/perldir/lib
But, if I use "perl Makefile.PL LIB=<private_dir>", I just get that one
private directory added to INC. You can't add multiple directories to
LIB.
To make a long story short, I decided the easiest solution was to build
perl like this:
perl Makefile.PL LIB=~/perldir/lib/i386-linux PREFIX=~/perldir
~/perldir/lib/i386-linux is the directory where HTML/Parser.pm resides
in my setup.
I hope this helps.
