I still didn't strike the problem you reported - but I did something a little differently. When it came to installing Parse-RecDescent-1.967009, the Makefile.PL croaked because EU::MM was at version 6.57_05, but 6.62 was needed. Rather than opt for an earlier version of P::RD, I installed version 6.62 of EU::MM (also into ~/modules) and all then went fine. Having done that, I then re-jigged things to build Inline-0.51 (perl Makefile.PL INSTALL_BASE=~/elsewhere) using version 6.57_05 of EU::MM and got exactly the same problem as you did. Apparently that's the version of EU::MM that originally shipped with 5.14.0 ... I haven't checked which version of EU::MM shgipped with 5.14.2 ... is upgrading to a later version of EU::MM an acceptable solution to this problem ? Cheers, Rob
