Re^4: perl -MCPAN -e shell ==> Segmentation fault (Cwd/PathTools)

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)

Install new perl

FWIW I encountered this error as I had an older installation of the Cwd cpan module installed/ available on the INC path. Removing that fixed my issue.
