perlbrew failing to build a perl
I must be doing something exceptionally dumb...
Trying to install perlbrew on an linux disto CentOS release 6.8 (Final) Tried to follow instruction og the perlbrew.org home page \curl -L https://install.perlbrew.pl | bash downloaded ok, but somehow I got the csh version of ~/.perlbrew/init; ie tries to set the env variables w "setenv" Removed ~/.perlbrew/init and all of ~/perl5.
Start again....
this time no ~/.perlbrew/init is created & if i run "~/perl5/perlbrew/bin/perlbrew init" no errors, but no ~/.perlbrew/init either.
Pushing on I tried perlbrew install perl-5.25.12 failed... Itried as another account -- same result tried a earlier perl version smae.

Hi,
It might help to upgrade patchperl utility by running perlbrew install-patchperl. This is installed with perlbrew itself since you use the installer (install.perlbrew.pl), but it will need to be upgraded independently. Devel::PatchPerl is the module that contain information about what extra patches are required on which platform.
Also I need to mentione that the patchperl script I prepared for the install-patchperl command on https://github.com/gugod/patchperl-packing/ was probably not up-to-date if you installed perlbrew recently. I've just fixed the packinging script and now it is packed with latest Devel::PatchPerl module. There's a good chance that you'll need it.
See more http://perlbrew.pl/Perlbrew-and-Friends.html
OTOH The tests failed on your are DBM/GDBM tests, meaning that you probably need to install rpm gdbm an gdbm-devel, I think.
