The procedures won't install CPAN modules into a user-local library #3

This was another finding from the Act hackathon at the French Perl Workshop 2019: The developer installation is targeted at dedicated VMs (with or without vagrant). The necessary CPAN modules are installed with cpanm under sudo, so they end up in system Perl. A setup where a developer wants to use a dedicated user id for testing, and install CPAN modules in this user's home directory, is not yet supported.

Something along those lines perhaps? This would even allow for installation of modules when working on specific tickets.

$ sudo apt-get install liblocal-lib-perl cpanminus
$ eval `perl -Mlocal::lib=/home/the-user/perl5/the-ticket-you-work-on`
$ cpanm Test::Class::Moose
