But looking into /usr/local/lib/perl5 I see a lot of dirs that are there but probably can be deleted. If I understand correctly the following dirs can be removed: perl5/5.00503 perl5/5.8.6 perl5/site_perl/5.005 perl5/site_perl/5.8.5 perl5/site_perl/5.8.6 Is there _any_ reason to keep those dirs around now perl is at version 5.8.7 ? -- dick -- http://nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.11-stable ++ FreeBSD 5.4 + Nai tiruvantel ar vayuvantel i Valar tielyanna nu vilja
