Re^5: perl install in Fedora 16

    At this point - yep, it looks like you have a damaged installation of Tk at the very least, so the right approach would be to reinstall it and re-check for errors: 

    perl -MTk -wle'print $Tk::VERSION'

Still no joy, perl generates the same error as before and the package is in a different directory than the @INC path. From what I have read so far, the @INC path is a hash generated by perl at initial install and is not possible to change. Can this be true?

        Sure it can be changed:

        • use lib ...
        • the PERL5LIB environment variable
        • the -I command line option
        • manipulating @INC directly, e.g. BEGIN { unshift @INC, "/path/to/libs" }

        (Also, it's not a hash, but an array.)
