in thread PDL installation problem

Now I think i destroyed something....I tried to install local:lib with that instruction: http://perl.jonallen.info/writing/articles/install-perl-modules-without-root after setting: echo 'eval $(perl -I$HOME/local-lib-1.008004/lib -Mlocal::lib)' >>~/.bashrc something is wrong. Each time if I open a new terminal i got this message inside the terminal (and also all colleagues who are working under that username) 
Can't locate local/lib.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /home/XXX
compilation aborted

    Edit your (resp. the target users) ~/.bashrc and remove the local::lib line again.

    Also, consider learning a bit about the shell(s) you are working under, especially if you are modifying the environment of a user account that is shared among several people.

    Undo what you did.

    What did you do? Do you know? You edited .bashrc, you appended stuff to it

    Append this instead

    export PERL5LIB=/home/user/stuff/lib/perl5

    export PERL_MB_OPT=--install_base /home/user/stuff

    export PERL_MM_OPT=INSTALL_BASE=/home/user/stuff

      Sorry, I dont understand what you mean with 
          export PERL5LIB=/home/user/stuff/lib/perl5

    export PERL_MB_OPT=--install_base /home/user/stuff

    export PERL_MM_OPT=INSTALL_BASE=/home/user/stuff

        What do you think I mean?

        which path should i add? usr/local/lib? where the original perl is installed? I dont understand why its not possible to kill this compiling process to avoid that each time, if someone opens a shell, there is an error message...and how can i find/change the bshrnc ??? i think i am lost at the moment...
