I want to have the option to install Perl modules , following this guide : https://srcc.stanford.edu/farmshare2/software-perllocallib#useManually running:

[user@illinXXXX ~]$ perl -Mlocal::lib

Attempting to create directory /testusers/env/test/user/perl5
test 1 == ${?PERL_LOCAL_LIB_ROOT} && setenv PERL_LOCAL_LIB_ROOT "${PER
+L_LOCAL_LIB_ROOT}:/testusers/env/test/user/perl5" || setenv PERL_LOCA
+L_LIB_ROOT "/testusers/env/test/user/perl5";
setenv PERL_MB_OPT "--install_base /testusers/env/test/user/perl5";
setenv PERL_MM_OPT "INSTALL_BASE=/testusers/env/test/user/perl5";
test 1 == ${?PERL5LIB} && setenv PERL5LIB "/testusers/env/test/user/pe
+rl5/lib/perl5:${PERL5LIB}" || setenv PERL5LIB "/testusers/env/test/us
+er/perl5/lib/perl5";
test 1 == ${?PATH} && setenv PATH "/testusers/env/test/user/perl5/bin:
+${PATH}" || setenv PATH "/testusers/env/test/user/perl5/bin";

from the installation guide: "Attempting to create directory...is what's important ..." If you see that message, and no errors, then local::lib is ready to use!" I see perl5 directory created but nothing in it. I need Perl to work with Couchbase DB - mostly for reading and updating , Found this module: http://search.cpan.org/~norbu/Store-CouchDB-3.8/lib/Store/CouchDB.pm But when trying to install as:

 
perl -Mlocal::lib Makefile.PL

following guide instruction :


Warning: prerequisite Any::Moose 0 not found.
Warning: prerequisite Data::Dump 0 not found.
Warning: prerequisite Data::Printer 0 not found.
Warning: prerequisite JSON 0 not found.
Warning: prerequisite Types::Serialiser 0 not found.
Writing Makefile for Store::CouchDB

secondly , I tried to install from cpan:

eval `perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib -Mlocal::lib=--shelltype=csh`


[user@illinXXXX Store-CouchDB-3.8]$ eval `perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib -Mloc
+al::lib=--shelltype=csh`
Unknown import argument: --shelltype=csh at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_pe
+rl/local/lib.pm line 47.
