I'd say perl itself might be "broken". More specifically, I believe that the 'Configure' script doesn't do the right thing. It seems impossible to build a /usr/local prefixed version of perl that doesn't interact somehow with the one installed with the system prefixed in /usr I believe that the port should be reinstated but got stuck trying to fix it myself. Perl's configuration script was, uh, interesting to try and follow.

I finally went back to 2.2.8 and then Perl compiled so it has to be something with the newest version. > > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > | Corey Christians > > | South Dakota Library Network > > | Programmer/Analyst > > | Phone: 605-642-6732 > > |1200 University, Spearfish, SD, 57799 > > > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
