Re^2: Config.pm file and @INC array

The error message means that you don't have the Config module installed

Config is not an installable module. Config is not just a part of Perl, it's built along with Perl. (It contains build options and system capabilities.) Something's very wrong here since Perl can't find itself.

Thanks for the clarification. I thought It'd be something like that and was confused by the fact that neither ~~the search.cpan.org perl core module list~~ nor `perl -MModule::CoreList -e 'Module::CoreList->first_release("Config")'` showed it, but this makes perfect sense of course. Update: and of course, the search.cpan.org list does show it, it's just under "Documentation" rather than "Modules". sigh All dogma is stupid.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

As some happy coincidence(?), search.cpan.org is actually finding the pod parts of `Config.pm` in `configpm`, the tool that builds `Config.pm`. Most of the documentation is missing on search.cpan.org (appearing only as `$c`) because the pod is generated as well.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
