All you have to\ndo is preload this plugin and then provide a subroutine override, which\ntakes a dist name (similar to a module name, but with dashes instead of\ndouble colon).  It should return one of:\n\n- system\n\n    For a system install\n\n- share\n\n    For a share install\n\n- default\n\n    Fallback on the [alienfile](https://metacpan.org/pod/alienfile) default.\n\n- `''`\n\n    Fallback first on `ALIEN_INSTALL_TYPE` and then on the [alienfile](https://metacpan.org/pod/alienfile) default.\n\n# SEE ALSO\n\n- [alienfile](https://metacpan.org/pod/alienfile)\n- [Alien::Build](https://metacpan.org/pod/Alien::Build)\n- [Alien::Build::Plugin::Probe::OverrideCI](https://metacpan.org/pod/Alien::Build::Plugin::Probe::OverrideCI)\n\n# AUTHOR\n\nAuthor: Graham Ollis \u003cplicease@cpan.org\u003e\n\nContributors:\n\nRoy Storey (KIWIROY)\n\n# COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE\n\nThis software is copyright (c) 2017 by Graham Ollis.\n\nThis is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under\nthe same terms as the Perl 5 programming language system itself.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fperlalien%2Falien-build-plugin-probe-override","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fperlalien%2Falien-build-plugin-probe-override","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fperlalien%2Falien-build-plugin-probe-override/lists"}
