build Module-Build using modules installed in personal library

I have been unsuccessfully in figuring out how Module-Build can be built using modules installed in a my home directory. I don't have access to install the modules in the distribution of perl that is on my machine. here's what i'm running currently:

$ perl Build.PL destdir=~/perl Checking whether your kit is complete... Looks good * Optional prerequisite Module::Signature isn't installed * Optional prerequisite Archive::Tar isn't installed * Optional prerequisite ExtUtils::CBuilder isn't installed ERRORS/WARNINGS FOUND IN PREREQUISITES. You may wish to install the versions of the modules indicated above before proceeding with this installation. Feature 'YAML_support' disabled because of the following prerequisite failures: * Prerequisite YAML isn't installed Deleting Build Removed previous script 'Build' Creating new 'Build' script for 'Module-Build' version '0.2611'

Re: build Module-Build using modules installed in personal library

Try to add -I switch to your perl call. In case of using --destdir param the "./Build test" call will fail if some modules from your local reporitory are required.

$ perl -I/home/dzl/perl-libs Build.PL --install_base /home/dzl/perl-libs Checking whether your kit is complete... Looks good Checking prerequisites... * Optional prerequisite Archive::Tar is not installed * Optional prerequisite ExtUtils::CBuilder is not installed * Optional prerequisite Module::Signature is not installed * Optional prerequisite ExtUtils::ParseXS is not installed * Optional prerequisite Pod::Readme is not installed ERRORS/WARNINGS FOUND IN PREREQUISITES. You may wish to install the versions of the modules indicated above before proceeding with this installation Checking features: manpage_support....enabled HTML_support.......enabled YAML_support.......disabled - YAML is not installed C_support..........disabled * Optional prerequisite ExtUtils::ParseXS is not installed - ExtUtils::CBuilder is not installed Deleting Build Removed previous script 'Build' Creating new 'Build' script for 'Module-Build' version '0.2801'
