G'day mje,

I'm using perlbrew and bash. I'm on a different OS (Mac OS X) and using Perl 5.14.2. Here's some thoughts on the problem you describe.

I get much the same results as you up to and including echo $PERLBREW_ROOT.

With find . ..., the relative paths are what I'd expect (and what I get) because the search starts at the relative directory . (dot - current directory). I don't have a Linux box to test on: find may be implemented differently; although, I suspect the command find / ... may have been used - searching from the absolute direcrtory / (slash - root directory).

How did you source ~/perl5/perlbrew/etc/bashrc? At the end of my ~/.bash_profile, I have 

. ~/.bashrc

[download]

My ~/.bashrc only contains: 

. ~/perl5/perlbrew/etc/bashrc

[download]

Did you type which perl and perl -MCPAN -le 'print' in the same window (login session)? It's possible that bashrc was sourced in one but not the other.

Does perl -V show the same @INC as you got from the perl -MCPAN ... command?

I suspect it's unlikely but you could also check for aliases (i.e. alias perl=...) which you may have picked up by sourcing the systemwide bashrc (possibly called /etc/bashrc).
