Subject: please support PERL_MM_OPT environment variable too
With Module::Build and local::lib it is enough to set PERL_MM_OPT=INSTALL_BASE=/Users/sven/perl5 For module::build::tiny i have to set export PERL_MB_OPT=--install_base=/Users/sven/perl5 in addition to the usual environment variables. It would be nice to support PERL_MM_OPT too, otherwise it fails to install because it trys the wrong folder. Thanks

No it is not. Old versions of local::lib used MODULEBUILDRC and a .modulebuildrc file to pass along the right install_base. I recommend upgrading to a local::lib that has been released in the past 3 years. Show quoted text

MakeMaker has an overly complicated argument model that can not easily be emulated (the amount of bugs in Module::Build::Compat proves that much). Just because it would work for INSTALL_BASE doesn't mean it would work in the general case. Leon
