queue has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I'm trying to install XML::RSS into my own directory.
I type:
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/kevin/perl/lib
I get:
Warning: prerequisite Test::Manifest 0.9 not found.
So I install Test::Manifest (version 0.91, the only version I could find) with:
And everything works fine. I try to create the makefile for XML::RSS again, and I get the same warning about it not being able to find Test::Manifest.
I've tried searching the site, but the closest thing I can find are directions on how to install something into my own directory, which I've been able to do fine. How can I make it look in my directory for the prerequisite?
