Subject: | XML::SAX will not build when LIB variable is set for Makefile.PL |
I have an application where I install my Perl modules in a special
directory that is zipped up and installed on a remote host. To do this
I set the LIB variable in Makefile.PL to point to my private library.
Unfortunately the install_sax_driver: target ignores this variable, so
that the perl invocation under that target fails. To fix this, I put
PERL5LIB=\$(INSTALLSITELIB)
at the beginning of line 45 in Makefile.PL.
There is a similar bug in XML::LibXML. A separate bug has been filed.
Perl version: 5.8.5
OS; Linux 2.4
