+The local installation method works best if the `PERL5LIB` environment variable
+(among others) is set correctly in the shell profile. A comprehensive guide how
+to do it correctly can be found in the manual page (`perldoc local::lib`,

- eval "`perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib`"
+Essentially, it boils down to adding the following line to your shell profile
+(e.g. `.bash_profile`, `.bashrc` for bash):
+
+ eval "$(perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib)"
+
+The inner perl command will print roughly the following output, which then gets
+evaluated by the shell to update the environment accordingly.

+ PERL5LIB="/home/<user>/perl5/lib/perl5${PERL5LIB:+:${PERL5LIB}}"; export PERL5LIB;
