how to use local::lib for non perl5 directory

tmaly has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Monks

I wanted to use local::lib to generate an environment setup for a different directory structure.

I tried

perl -I$HOME/perl32 -Mlocal::lib=$HOME/perl32

but it wants to put the directories under

$HOME/perl32/lib/perl5

I want them to be under

$HOME/perl32/lib

is there a way to accomplish this with local::lib ?

is there a way to accomplish this with local::lib ? No, but you don't need local::lib to override installation locations, see ExtUtils::FakeConfig and some of these perl5, perl5::ingy ToolSet Syntax::Collector Toolkit rig see perlrun#PERL5OPT , PERLLIB, PERL5LIB sitecustomize under perlrun#* f* how to make lexical pragma global, hints ( pl_hints $^H %^H ), taint::all, Re: batch 'use' possible? (perl5.pm Toolset.pm, Syntax::Collector , Toolkit.pm, rig.pm, sitecustomize.pl, PERL5OPT )( load multiple commonly-used favorite modules in a single import expression ) export into / Import::Into :D	[reply]

This isn't directly an issue with local::lib, but with the INSTALL_BASE option for ExtUtils::MakeMaker and --install_base for Module::Build. They always append lib/perl5 to the library paths they use for installation. local::lib then follows this when setting up PERL5LIB.	[reply]
