I think it was Matthew Seaman, who posted here nice guide of upgrading existing perl modules to be usable with new (port) version of perl. I will look into it... ah here it is: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2004-April/043400.h= tml Also Kent Stewart (in reply to Matthew's posting) has mentioned that one has to upgrade also automake due to its need for perl. Anyway there is a command to revert to previous (system) version of perl. Just type use.perl system and you are good to go. =20 Cheers, Martin =09 --=20 martin hudec * 421 907 303 393 * corwin@aeternal.net * http://www.aeternal.net "Nothing travels faster than the speed of light with the possible=20 exception of bad news, which obeys its own special laws."
