You might just as easily hire them to install ic.  Diagnosis might
require that anyway.  This is not an IC problem or even perl, but you do
need sysadmin help.

BTW, just what **is** ../..?  Is it a directory, a link?  Is it even on the
same machine, NFS?  What is 'pwd'?  What are permissions on ~ and ~/inter...?

Check for consistency perl -V, try make -d and see if anything sticks out.
