I am trying to use local::lib as I don’t have admin rights on the system and I want to download and install a local library. I ran following:
perl Makefile.PL --bootstrap
make test && make install
echo 'eval $(perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib)' >>~/.bashrc
After this I tried to download the Module via cpan
by running perl -MCPAN -e shell install netAddr::IP but when i am running my program it's giving an error:
Can't locate NetAddr/IP.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 .) at agha.pl line 8.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at agha.pl line 8.
I took that to mean the module is not installed... So I again tried to go through CPAN, but now it's giving an error (this is in Linux):
-bash-3.2$ perl -MCPAN -e shell
There seems to be running another CPAN process (pid 15611). Contacting...
Other job is running.
You may want to kill it and delete the lockfile, maybe. On UNIX try:
kill 15611
rm /homes/ar312/.cpan/.lock
From the local::lib documentation:
After writing your shell configuration file, be sure to re-read it to get the changed settings into your current shell's environment.
You forgot to do so.
