System info

• Redhat Enterprise Linux 5.5.56 (64-bit)
• I just upgraded perl with 'curl -L http://xrl.us/installperlnix | bash' to 5.20.1 by putting it into $HOME/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.20.1/. Binary 'perl' is under bin/. CPAN files are now in lib/site_perl/5.20.1.
• The /usr/bin/perl file is now a soft link to the binary in my home dir above. It is no longer a shell script. By default my shell is /bin/csh.
• My PERL5LIB in my .cshrc: setenv PERL5LIB /export/home/chuck/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.20.1/lib/site_perl/5.20.1/auto:/export/home/chuck/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.20.1/lib/site_perl/5.20.1 which I have already 'source'd.

Questions</> When running perl I get the error:

This tells me the path is not set up right for @INC, and possibly the installation process appended something to @INC somewhere. How to I make sure to look in the lib/site_perl/5.20.1 path first before anything else? I want to do this globally, not via a 'use lib' statement in each perl program. I have 100+ perl programs.

Yes, when I did 'perl -d test.pl' and looked at @INC, those paths of ../../../.. were there, they are not a shortened version of something else.
