    Hello Maxim,<br>
    <br>
    I say $HOME/perl5 (~/perl5) is where my <br>
    personally installed modules are located.<br>
    Actually in ~/perl5/lib/perl5/<br>
    <br>
    I am less sure about $HOME/.cpan (~/.cpan),<br>
    but I think that is where the cpan settings <br>
    are stored.=C2=A0 But looking inside it suggests <br>
    it is more than just settings.<br>
    <br>

      Dear all,
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>How are you? I re-read the README file of the local::lib
        module. There was one more command missing:</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>echo 'eval "$(perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib)"'
        &gt;&gt;~/.bashrc</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>My new Perl settings in the .profile file are:</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>
        <div># Perl 5.38</div>
        <div>export PATH=3D/usr/local/bin:$PATH</div>
        <div>export PERL5LIB=3D$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5</div>
        <div>eval `perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib`</div>
      </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Now everything works. But I still don=E2=80=99t understand the=
 setup
        very well. What is the difference between the =E2=80=98.cpan=E2=80=
=99 and
        =E2=80=98perl5=E2=80=99 directories? What is their purpose? Thank=
 you and have a
        great day ahead!</div>
      <div><br>

      <div>=E2=80=94</div>
