Hello, I have just upgrade my perl-5.8.8 to perl-5.10 , this new perl is installed at /usr/local/bin/perl I have install a lot of modules in the old perl directory, so I have problem of using the new perl version because of many uninstalled module, should reinstalled all the modules that I need into the new perl directory or make my new perl @INC to include the @INC of the old perl ?

If appending the directory of old perl @INC to new perl @INC would just fine, how can I configure the @INC of new perl PERMANENTLY ? Other than using "use lib @DIR" ? I thought of using "export PER5LIB=...." , but not sure how to make it permanently all the time?

You should have read the Install file before installing the new version. All your questions are answered there; see in particular http://search.cpan.org/~rgarcia/perl-5.10.0/INSTALL#Coexistence_with_earlier_versions_of_perl_5

You may now want to recompile perl to get the @INC you want.
