in reply to CPAN non-root questions

Unless I'm totally misunderstanding your question, this is all covered in the CPAN FAQ. http://www.cpan.org/misc/cpan-faq.html#How_install_private

In short, you can govern where the files are built to on the command line. You can override the default cpan config file by simply creating a .cpan directory structure and config file in your home directory. Pretty sure all of that is covered in the CPAN faq though.

    No you got it right. I checked the faq, I'm apparently just mildly illiterate. Well, I used perldoc -q. I never really thought to check the CPAN website. That's an excellent link.
        Hey, thanks for this information. But for future reference, 5 yeas after the fact, I totally figured it out already. Thanks.
