Matthieu Imbert commented on THRIFT-528:
----------------------------------------

actually there is the same kind of problem with ruby:
{noformat}
install thrift.rb /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/

{noformat}

i would gladly try to submit a patch both for perl and ruby, but i don't know 
the standard installation policies for these languages (perhaps the idea of 
having a "per user" library directory is not relevant for perl and ruby?)

> perl lib installation prefix should be configurable

> perl library installation path should be configurable.
> currently, when configuring with this command:
> {noformat} 
> $ PY_PREFIX=/home/lyon/mimbert/local JAVA_PREFIX=/home/lyon/mimbert/local/lib 
> ./configure --prefix=/home/lyon/mimbert/local
> {noformat} 
> then when doing make install (without root privileges), i get the following 
> error:
> {noformat} 
> ERROR: Can't create '/usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0'
> mkdir /usr/local/share/perl: Permission denied at 
> /usr/share/perl/5.10/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 479
> {noformat} 
> i think perl lib installation path should either be based on the --prefix 
> given on command line, or on a new PERL_PREFIX environment variable similar 
> to the already existing PY_PREFIX and JAVA_PREFIX.
