Re^2: Where to unpack CPAN modules

I recommend using a combination of PREFIX= and LIB= as in:

perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=~/perl LIB=~/perl/lib
make
make test
make install
[download]

If you have any modules that use Module::Build, the mantra is different: (presented here for completeness)

perl Build.PL install_base=~/perl
./Build
./Build test
./Build install
[download]
