in reply to Using CPAN to install in /home/dir

You can set

makepl_arg' => q[PREFIX=/home/me],

in your ~/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm file. (There's also a way of doing it from the CPAN shell, but I always forget and find it easier to edit the file manually.)

    Thanks to all for your suggestions. I used the makepl_arg suggestion and it worked nicely!

    Regards,
