[wplug] Perl question

[Chris]

Ok,

Here is part of the Makefile
Line: code

89: installhtml1dir=''
90: installhtml3dir=''
91: installman1
92: INSTALLSITEBIN = /usr

Would it be ok to delete that line?

When using the CPAN module for the first time, you are prompted for a 
cache or build directory (I forget exactly what they call it).  I think 
the default is ~/.cpan so probably /root/.cpan if you were root.  In 
there, you should find the tar.gz file as well as the build directory.  
You can debug from there by manually trying to build it (perl Makefile.PL 
&& make).
