Uhh, not realy a bug. Did you read "INSTALL" ? --8<--- about line 358: You can specify a different 'prefix' for the default installation directory, when Configure prompts you or by using the Configure command line option -Dprefix='/some/directory', e.g. sh Configure -Dprefix=/opt/perl If your prefix contains the string "perl", then the suggested directory structure is simplified. For example, if you use prefix=/opt/perl, then Configure will suggest /opt/perl/lib instead of /opt/perl/lib/perl5/. Again, see L<"Installation Directories"> below for more details. Do not include a trailing slash, (i.e. /opt/perl/) or you may experience odd test failures. -->8--- FWIW I've got several binary HP-UX builds ready for use available on my HP ITRC site pages can be found at (please use LA as primary choice): USA Los Angeles http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/ SGP Singapore https://www.beepz.com/personal/merijn/ USA Chicago http://ww.hpux.ws/merijn/ NL Hoofddorp http://www.cmve.net/~merijn/ the perl builds available there are to be installed on /opt/perl Enjoy, have FUN!
