in reply to Re^3: perl -MCPAN -e shell ==> Segmentation fault (Cwd/PathTools)
in thread perl -MCPAN -e shell ==> Segmentation fault

/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/File/Path.pm line 6.

I'll assume local/lib... isn't your vendor perl

So the way to resolve this issue is to rm -rf /usr/local/lib/perl5 and recompile/reinstall perl anew

OTOH, you might want to dump your perl -V maybe you have something weird in there (unlikely)
