How do I change the INC path? Or do I create the /root/perl5 folders, and chmod 755
You mention earlier that "The Fedora installation does set PERL5LIB to /root/perl5", to which I would reply, no it doesn't, not by default. what I suspect you are doing is being logged in as root, and in root's /root/.bashrc or similar, it sets PERL5LIB to $HOME/perl5. Then you are doing su user rather than su - user, and so inheriting root's environment. Note that /root is the root user's home directory; a non-root user should *not* be accessing anything under /root.
So in summary, your PERL5LIB environment variable shouldn't be set; find out how its being set, and stop it.
Dave.

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).
