15:24:07 <jralls> englishman Did you see the notes about AppendToPath? That should be the correct fix for your problem.
15:24:41 <englishman> jralls: yeah, one sec
15:24:58 <englishman> no, AppendToPath doesn’t exist in that folder
15:25:14 <englishman> let me follow your instructions now
15:26:49 <englishman> hmm zsh: permission denied even with sudo

16:16:35 <jralls> englishman, interesting. I get the same thing, it must be protected with SIP. But that raises the question of why yours is missing.
16:17:34 <jralls> It isn't about Xcode, I checked my wife's MBP yesterday and it's present on hers.
16:20:23 <jralls> Does `perldoc perlmacosx` mention it? It would be in the second paragraph under "Module Search Path (@INC)" that starts with "By default Mac OS X does not come with a PrependToPath file".
16:26:04 <jralls> englishman, Aha! `sudo nano /Library/Perl/5.34/AppendToPath` works. You can paste in the Extras path and <control>x to save and quit.
16:30:25 *** linas has joined #gnucash
16:41:19 <englishman> OK, perl -V does indeed show the extra paths now, thanks
16:41:22 <englishman> I should attempt a reinstall?
16:41:59 <englishman> it’s 14.4.1 macbook air M2 by the way
16:45:51 <englishman> it has failed

17:08:27 *** gjanssens has quit IRC
19:38:29 <jralls> englishman, You can get rid of the PERL5LIB bit now. F::Q doesn't specify a version of LWP::UserAgent so that's coming from something you managed to install into /Library.Perl.5.34.
19:38:55 <jralls> Err /Library/Perl/5.34
19:40:00 <englishman> Noted for PERL5LIB. If something undesired was installed it was part of another program’s install, I know nothing about perl. What would help here, a directory listing?
19:42:26 <jralls> My wife fortuitously returned just now so I was able to check her computer. She doesn't do any programming anymore so her perl installation is virgin and it turns out that the only thing in /Library/Perl/5.34/ is AppendToPath. So just nuke it and start over from creating AppendToPath.

21:50:57 <englishman> anything else you need to help improve the documentation?
21:52:05 <englishman> there was another saved-5.34 dir in /Libary/Perl/ so I had deleted it before probably in early debugging
