Re: problem installing perl modules without root permission

in reply to problem installing perl modules without root permission

In contrast to the typical Unix shell, Perl does not expand ~ to your home directory, so you'll have to do that yourself, i.e. something like '/home/username/...', or "$ENV{HOME}/..." (if HOME is set in your environment).

(for the sake of correctness: I updated the $ENV{HOME} part a couple of seconds after my initial post... thus glide's reply)

Hi, in a unix environment, you can also use the `$ENV{HOME}`	[reply] [d/l]
