How can I install a perl module without a root authority?

Without a root permission, I can't install perl module through normal way
such as CPAN. But I have to use this module(XML::Quote).
I have tried to copy the .pm file to my own lib directory directly, but it
says "can't locate loadable perl module ".

Is there any other way to install perl modules without a root authority?

Thanks.

Look to local::lib in http://search.cpan.org/~apeiron/local-lib/lib/local/lib.pm

If you can justify the need for it and the importance thereof, surely your
Linux/Unix Admin can install it
for you or provide you with the necessary sudo access so you can do it
yourself. That probably
depends on various factors, ie if that's a production system, if change
control needs to take place,
if the security policy allows it etc etc...

Otherwise you will need to localise things to your account using local:lib

Good luck

The problem is :admin is not in now.
