Hello, In Makefile.PL of Test-Exception-0.27, INSTALLDIRS is set to 'site' rather than 'perl' and the local installation fails. Changing it fixes the problem.

I'm a little confused by this. "site" is the correct setting (it's the default if none is specified). "perl" is reserved for modules that live in the core perl distribution. T::E is not a core perl module - so setting it to "perl" is a definite no-no for the general release (which as you can see by the CPAN testers results here http://www.cpantesters.org/show/Test-Exception.html#Test-Exception-0.27 is installing successfully for the vast majority of folk :-) Without knowing more about the initial installation problem I can't really offer any other advice. I'm guessing that you have some kind of permission problem with your perl installation - might be worth chatting to whoever did that. Cheers, Adrian

Sorry: my mistake! I was backporting something and moving it locally because of some compatibility problems and I have overseen some packages. Just forget it and sorry for the confusion: it was meant to help ...
