Try run this: perl -e 'print join "\n", @INC' This shows the paths which perl will look for modules, the old version paths should be included, mine is: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.4/BSDPAN /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.4/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.4 . So it is not necesary to reinstall all perl modules. If you need to toggle @INC the Perl manual recommends you to 'use lib'.
