Hi, I am trying to install the PDL module and several applications (PDL::NiceSlice, PDL::Char)for Perl. The problem is that I donīt have admin (root) rights, so its not possible to install it automatically (even with setting a different installation-path)...I set for several other moduls a lib-path and put the specific files manually in the folder but for PDL it doesnt work...too many other files needed (missing xxx.pm, "badsupport.p": During a perl Makefile.PL, the file Basic/Core/badsupport.p is created...and so on). Is there another way to install PDL and the additional 1000 needed files on an easy way? (Using SunOS 5.10 and Perl 5.8) Thanks for help
