Good to know, but maybe it’s not my fault that I assumed an official post by the Perl Steering Committee on perl.org would show the best solution.

That’s great, but you might notice that you’ve given me, who is new to these approaches in Perl, exactly no information on where to start.

Yes, I was very transparent about the extent and recency of my experience. Luckily, that combative attitude to a mostly interested/positive comment isn’t representative of the Perl community as a whole, or there really wouldn’t be any users left.

Different people have different opinions on what constitutes "best". The post author is conservative and values compatibility over conciseness.

If one doesn't know the difference, then likely local::lib is appropriate. It's already built into the installation tools: https://metacpan.org/pod/cpan#-I https://metacpan.org/pod/cpanm#-l,-local-lib

> combative attitude

The assumption of me wanting to fight comes as a surprise, but you got hold of the wrong end of the stick.
