Hi! Dear diary, on Wed, Jul 26, 2006 at 04:25:13AM CEST, I got a letter where Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@xxxxxx> said that... > Nope. The culprit is > > use lib (split(/:/, $ENV{GITPERLLIB} || "/Library/Perl/darwin")); > > The latter, /Library/Perl/darwin comes from making "instlibdir" in perl/, > which in turn is generated by "perl Makefile.PL". Calling the latter with > PREFIX set does not change the output of "instlibdir" in any way. xpasky@machine[1:0]~/git-pb/perl$ perl Makefile.PL && make instlibdir Writing Makefile for Git /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux xpasky@machine[1:0]~/git-pb/perl$ perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/xpasky && make instlibdir Writing Makefile for Git /home/xpasky/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux But it wouldn't help anyway, you would need to install git "to itself", which I'm not sure how well works. I think in previous discussions it was deemed acceptable to require the user running Git in place to set PERL5LIB so that Git.pm is found. -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ Snow falling on Perl.
