Hi, I'm new to perl. I recently installed RHEL 5.5 (it's the only Linux dist allowed at my work place) and tried to upgrade from perl 5.8.8 (which came with RHEL) to v 5.12.2. I didn't get any errors after going through the config shell, make test, make install steps. But when I ask what the new version is (perl -v), it still tells me 5.8.8. The RHEL tech support can't help me as this is, for them, an unsupported perl version. Is there a way to do this (I would need detailed instruction)? It doesn't necessarily need to be v 5.12.2, but at least 5.10 and above.
many thanks, galeb
