perl-local-lib


Information about the package, perl-local-lib, which is shipped with common Linux distributions. The perl-local-lib package is designed for, Create and use a local lib/ for perl modules.


Package Name:

perl-local-lib

Summary:

Create and use a local lib/ for perl modules

Description:

This module provides a quick, convenient way of bootstrapping a user- local Perl module library located within the user's home directory. It also constructs and prints out for the user the list of environment variables using the syntax appropriate for the user's current shell (as specified by the 'SHELL' environment variable), suitable for directly adding to one's shell configuration file. More generally, local::lib allows for the bootstrapping and usage of a directory containing Perl modules outside of Perl's '@INC'. This makes it easier to ship an application with an app-specific copy of a Perl module, or collection of modules. Useful in cases like when an upstream maintainer hasn't applied a patch to a module of theirs that you need for your application.
