Self-contained, portable perl binaries for Linux and macOS. You can download them from release page. See also SUPPORT.md.
Since version 5.10, perl can be built with relocatable INC.
If we build perl with -Duserelocatableinc and apply some patches to it,
then we have self-contained and portable perl.
There are 3 ways:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/skaji/relocatable-perl/main/perl-install | bash -s ~/perl
This installs the latest relocatable perl to ~/perl.
If you use plenv, then plenv-download may be useful:
git clone https://github.com/skaji/plenv-download $(plenv root)/plugins/plenv-download
# download the latest relocatable perl
plenv download latest
You can download appropriate tarballs from release pages.
For example, if you use linux amd64, then:
curl -fsSL -o perl-linux-amd64.tar.xz https://github.com/skaji/relocatable-perl/releases/latest/download/perl-linux-amd64.tar.xz
tar xJf perl-linux-amd64.tar.xz
mv perl-linux-amd64 ~/wherever-you-want
~/wherever-you-want/bin/perl --version
