in thread CPAN modules losing in home directory

Thanks. /home/dthroop/lib/perl/man/man3 exists and is not a link.
perl '-V:install.*' yields values for a root install:
installman1dir='/usr/share/man/man1'; installman3dir='/usr/share/man/man3';
Should it be finding ~/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pl?

Q: Do you want to install bin and script in the same directory?
A: I thought I did; what is standard? If the scripts are in another directory, do I have to change PERL5LIB or anything?

I'm going to try the manual install after lunch.

    mmmh... I just realize that the file in my CPAN dir is MyConfig.pm, not MyConfig.pl... I don't know if this can be a problem but its easy to check it.

    How about the manual install?
