I've seen perlbrew recommended by a large number of people as a way to manage multiple local (within ~/) versions of Perl. My main desire is to be able to install Perls and CPAN modules without interfering with Mac OSX 10.8's system Perl.

I have installed perlbrew successfully, and tried using it to install Perl 5.14.2. This fails near the end, during a test: locale.t.

This error also occurs when installing 5.12.4, and it occurred previously when I tried all this under OSX 10.7.4.

I found this link which appears to address this problem, but I don't have any idea how to make use of it.

Could anyone provide some insight?

Thanks,

Chap
