| Subject: | Install to 'site' instead of 'perl' when perl version is 5.11+ |
Hello,
Currently, the Makefile.PL will set INSTALLDIRS to 'perl' if the perl
version is 5.8.9 or above. According to [1] from 5.11 onwards it is safe
again to install to the 'site' directory.
The attached patch amends the current INSTALLDIRS check to take that
into account.
regards,
Robert Sedlacek
