in thread standard library to return system paths

I need a standard module, because it's like a catch 22, I order to run a program with libraries, I need to be able to tell my program to tell, where those libraries are. In order to tell, where the libraries are, I have to tell load a library, that can tell it. That's why I need a module, or a variable, that's is standard on perl distros.

    The closest you might find for libraries is Devel::CheckLib, which hopes that your C compiler has been set up correctly and tries to find the appropriate library.

      Thanx, but Devel::CheckLib is not a standard library

        You can install it from CPAN or bundle it with your application/distribution.

        Other than that, there is no standard library for such stuff. That's what CPAN is for.
