I suppose that Suse, like any other good Linux distribution has a package tool, I guess it is called Yast. If you want to update your perl package, first check Suse web site, they perhaps have a package with the last perl version. It they don't, first uninstall the perl package with Yast, and install yourself the tarball as you did it previously. The default place (/usr/local) is generally a good one for programs that don't belong to the distribution packages. > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > -- Ce qu'il y a d'enivrant dans le mauvais goût, c'est le plaisir aristocratique de déplaire.
