Thanks for the reply.

I don't think I want to delete $ENV{PERL5LIB} because none of these scripts are solely "mine", so I don't want to mess anybody else up.

My understanding was that use lib or -I were good for individual scripts or one-offs, but not a good solution for permanently setting up a working environment. But I could be wrong.

Since I already have 2 system perls (legacy 5.8.9 and the aforementioned 5.10.0) and 2 MacPorts perls (5.12 and 5.14), and presumably those MP perls are needed by other programs I have installed so I can't get rid of them, I think adding more Perls with perlbrew would just complicate things.

Maybe getting netpbm to change to /usr/bin/env perl would be the best solution.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
