in reply to Tweaking DynaLoader's path without write access to the perl installation

From the DynaLoader docs:

       @dl_library_path
           The standard/default list of directories in which
           dl_findfile() will search for libraries etc.

The docs go on to describe how the array is initialised, and what you can do with it afterwards.

Hope this helps,

    Just a simple: perl Makefile.PL LIB=/blah PREFIX=/blah followed by the usual make with a use lib '/blah'; will work fine as the binaries will also be installed into the local dir in the appropriate locations for Dynaloader to find.

    cheers
