This is exactly the situation I'm in, at home or elsewhere create a minicpan, transfer it using the clients signed off mechanism, extract and then install via cpanm as normal. Another alternative would be to install your own version of perl specific to your application elsewhere on the system. One argument for doing so is leaving the system perl alone, which could be a convincing argument for this course of action given the environment in which you are working.	[reply]

So local::lib now has a prerequsite of EUMM v7. You seem to have a method for transferring files onto this system somehow, here's a method for getting an up to date EUMM & local::lib installed. In my example below ignore the wgets for the packages, I'll leave them in for a complete end to end illustration: marto@pihost:~$ perl -v This is perl 5, version 14, subversion 2 (v5.14.2) built for arm-linux +-gnueabihf-thread-multi-64int ........ marto@pihost:~$ wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/H/HA/HAARG +/local-lib-2.000023.tar.gz marto@pihost:~$ wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/B/BI/BINGO +S/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-7.30.tar.gz marto@pihost:~$ tar xzf ExtUtils-MakeMaker-7.30.tar.gz marto@pihost:~$ cd ExtUtils-MakeMaker-7.30/ marto@pihost:~$ perl Makefile.PL INSTALL_BASE=$HOME/perl5 marto@pihost:~$ make marto@pihost:~$ make test marto@pihost:~$ make install marto@pihost:~$ cd .. marto@pihost:~$ tar xzf local-lib-2.000023.tar.gz marto@pihost:~$ cd local-lib-2.000023/ marto@pihost:~$ perl -I $HOME/perl5/lib Makefile.PL --bootstrap marto@pihost:~$ make marto@pihost:~$ make test marto@pihost:~$ make install [download] Now follow the remainder of the local::lib config. As mentioned earlier a minicpan is a great advantage working the sort of envrionements you and I seem to. After the above I installed cpanm and was able to use it to automatically install modules without issue. Let me know if this causes any problems. Update: As mentioned earlier, we installed our own perl, which is far more recent than the system perl, in another directory, and all our apps use this. Negates lots of issues. Our client saw this as a sane and logical suggestion, keeping clear of the system perl.	[reply] [d/l]

"I dont understand whats wrong, I install the ExtUtils::MakeMaker , I think locally but when i try to install the local::lib it still see the old verison of ExtUtils::MakeMaker" Take a look at the instructions I posted, when boostrapping local::lib I include the path to where I installed EUMM v7. The instructions I gave you should be pretty much copy & paste.	[reply]

Can you show the output of `make install` too? ($q=q:Sq=~/;[c](.)(.)/;chr(-\|\|-\|5+lengthSq)`"S\|oS2"`map{chr \|+ord }map{substrSq`S_+\|`\|}3E\|-\|`7**2-3:)=~y+S\|`+$1,++print+eval$q,q,a, [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
