Re^2: How to instrust Perl to load the right modules based on architecture?

Finally, the 'use lib...' statements comes like this:

 use lib "$FindBin::Bin/lib/perl5";
 use lib "$FindBin::Bin/lib/perl5/site_perl";
 use lib "$FindBin::Bin/lib64/perl5";
 use lib "$FindBin::Bin/lib64/perl5/site_perl";
[download]

And, the script works well in both i386 and x86_64 boxes. But what's the difference between "lib/perl5" and "lib/perl5/site_perl", the lib module wouldn't add the 'site_perl' subdirectory automatically. what does "site_perl" mean?

On my machine, I have lib and site\lib in my Perl directory. The former houses the core modules (those that come with Perl). The latter houses the rest. I suspect there is a parallel.	[reply]
