hello, i would like to upgrade perl to 5.8.0 i currently have 5.6.1
i use redhat and perl was originally installed as a precompiled binary (.rpm) i started out with 5.6.0 and somehow it got updated to 5.6.1 maybe i updated the .rpm or it could have happened with CPAN? i have use 'perl -MCPAN -e shell' ; install New::Module i have never compiled perl from scratch i have downloaded 5.8.0 and untarred it, as a regular user (non root) i am worried that if i compile it the redhat version will not be removed. or i will have other problems what is the best way to proceed? the main reason i want to upgrade is i want to print out a lot of the documentation, and i figure if i am going to print it out, i should have the latest version. thanks for your time and help, Randy Perkins -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
