in reply to CPAN module, make test, ignores PERLLIB?

What is your exact command line? Are you using my cpan script (the command named "cpan") or something else?

What's in your CPAN.pm configuration? You can get that from the CPAN.pm shell:

$ perl -MCPAN -e shell cpan> o conf

    Command line:

    /expsys/local/perl5/bin/cpan Data::Dumper

    Also tried:

    /usr/bin/perl -MCPAN -e 'install Data::Dumper'

    ... but this fails with:

    Can't locate object method "install" via package "Data::Dumper" (perhaps you for got to load "Data::Dumper"?) at -e line 1.

    ... although it has worked for other modules (besides Data::Dumper)
