in reply to Catalyst question -- should I build my own perl for running as non-root in a hosted environment
b) It sounds a little extreme, but if Catalyst is really so broken that it can't respect a simple prefix setting then it might be a reasonable short-term solution until it gets fixed. Have you considered fixing it yourself?
c) When you compile Perl, tell it to install into a directory you control. Something like:
sh Configure -Dprefix=~/perl
That will configure Perl to install below ~/perl. If you're completely new to compiling Perl, read this: INSTALL.
