Subject: 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. XML::LibXML will not build when LIB variable is set for Makefile.PL OS; Linux 2.4
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_pureperl: target ignores this variable, so that the perl invocation under that target fails. To fix this, I put PERL5LIB=\$(INSTALLSITELIB) at the beginning of lines 311 and 312 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
