note aitap <p><del>Do you use system Perl, or Perl built using perlbrew? What's inside <c>~/perl5/perlbrew/etc/bashrc</c>? Do you see any differences in root's config files? Search <c>~/.cpan/CPAN/MyPrefs.pm</c> and the output of <c>o conf</c> CPAN shell command for something unusual in options named <c>make_..._arg</c> and <c>mbuild_..._arg</c>.</del></p> <p>It looks like removing these lines made you use system Perl again instead of perlbrew's one, and CPAN is set to install modules in system directories by default.</p> <!-- Node text goes above.
