perl directory), e.g.,

You should also read the individual tests to see if there are any helpful

+Perl 5.29.9 is not binary compatible with earlier versions of Perl.
In other words, you will have to recompile your XS modules.
In general, you can usually safely upgrade from one version of Perl
libraries after 5.6.0, but not for executables. TODO?) One convenient
way to do this is by using a separate prefix for each version, such as
- sh Configure -Dprefix=/opt/perl5.29.2
+ sh Configure -Dprefix=/opt/perl5.29.9
-and adding /opt/perl5.29.2/bin to the shell PATH variable. Such users
