in thread Force reinstall on NFS via CPAN::install (or other method)?

I do realise that my original idea was a bad one. I had assumed that Perl sorts out the version- and architecture specific bits of modules into the various separate subdirectories which seem to exist. Obviously not. However, my question is how to reinstall just those modules for 5.10 on the NFS share?

    cpan -f -i Module::Name

    or with cpanm:

    cpanm --reinstall Module::Name Other::Module

    While specifying your local::lib config.

    Obviously, as you told it where to install them. Normally, custom built perl stores the libraries into its own site_perl directory and everything works.
