| `-------------------------------------------------
|
| You'll have to do this from the initial make and set the prefix
| directory accordingly. So for instance if you want to install in
| your home directory which is /home/sean/ you'll need to do the
| following:
|
| perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/sean/
| make
| make install
|
| Then you will not need root/admin privileges, you will however need
| to modify @INC to know to look in the directory you choose for the
| library.
|
`-------------------------------------------------
You'll need to have write permission into the location you are
trying to install to. So if you did:
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/System/Library/Perl/
You'll need write permission in /System/Library/Perl.
Not being a Mac OS X user, is /System/Library/Perl the default
library location?
