Hi, (I don't subscribe to this list, so please copy me in on replies)
Mac OS X 10.5.4, Git 1.5.6.2
I use FileVault for my home directory: my files are stored on an encrypted disk image which is mounted on my home (/Users/jonathon). When I run "sudo make install", perllocal.pod gets written to:
/Users/jonathon/System/Library/Perl/5.8.8/darwin-thread-multi-2level/ perllocal.pod
under my home directory instead of at the root of the drive. Presumably this is because it's writing to /System at the root of the current mount, not at the rooty-root.
perl/perl.mak:9 reads: # MakeMaker ARGV: (q[PREFIX=/Users/jonathon])
which is later used to prefix /System. I don't have expertise in this area, so I'm hoping someone else can correct the error.
Thanks!
