Dear Monks
How I may be able to install a newer version in my local directory when an older version exists in standard installation directory.
I am using MyConfig.pm under .cpan/CPAN and I don't have access to root. Here is the example when I am trying to install HTML::Parser Module.
All tests successful, 1 test skipped.
Files=41, Tests=233,  3 wallclock secs ( 2.51 cusr +  0.48 csys =  2.99 CPU)
  /usr/bin/make test -- OK
Running make install
Cannot forceunlink /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux/auto/HTML/Parser/Parser.so:
 Permission denied at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/File/Find.pm line 495
Unlinking /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux/auto/HTML/Parser/Parser.so (shadowing?)
make: *** pure_site_install Error 255
  /usr/bin/make install UNINST=1 -- NOT OK

Thanks
