[plug] @INC in Perl

[Earnshaw, Mike]

Pluggers,

On a sur of the moment decision, I jumped into the dir that *did*
contain UserAGent.pm, ran make && make install and now my @INC problem
has disappeared. Maybe the cpan part did not work properly?

Still lik eto know how to modify @INC though

Mike

#Pluggers,
#
#Playing with Perl at a NEWBIE level. Following some instructions in a
#readme file, perl -MCPAN -e shell. Then ...
#
#cpan> install Bundle::LWP
#
#No errors that I noticed. But when I run this perl script it 
#reports ...
#
#Can't locate WP/UserAgent.pm in @INC (@INC contains: .....)
#
#I am guessing that @INC is some kind of path, but I can't find where it
#is modified. The file that it reports as missing is on the system but
#not in any of the @INC dirs, so I created a sym link from one of the
#dirs listed to the actual file but it still fails.
#
#Any pointers please?
