Hello , What I would like to do, is create a "duplicate" perl instance from the OS installed system perl . This would be 5.8.8. This is in relation to an early post I had made (#1135687). My perl users have been using the OS install and I now want to move them off of it to their own. So that my OS upgrades do not effect their current perl. I can easily copy/create a new directory structure for them ( /usr/opt/perl5/* -> /segregated). But not sure how best to alter the @INC declaration or any other pieces that may need pointed to this area. In looking at perlbrew, I'm not quite sure if this will do it (not installing different, but replicated). Nor do I know/think autobundle is what I need , or if autobundle is overkill. I know that future module adds would require me to add Prefix= to the "perl Makefile.PL " step.Would appreciate any wisdom/suggestions you may have on this. Thanks very much in advance.
