Treat accordingly. I just updated to p5-News-Newsrc-1.08 from the previous version. After some odd problems with a wrapper around ubh, I tracked the source of the problem as being the first line in Newsrc.pm, which is use 5.6.0; Now in and of itself this is fairly reasonable, since one has to keep up with software if one is going to change things. My problem is that the port buids with FreeBSD's built-in perl (5.005_03) without error or warning and installs as /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/News/Newsrc.pm For reference, the perl port is currenly 5.6.1. For my purposes, I can live unhappily with the line commented to keep ubh ticking along, but this doesn't seem right. -Andrew- -- ______________________________________________________________________ | -Andrew J.
