Where the heck > can you get older versions of perl off of CPAN? If you're running RHEL, you should not have to touch CPAN except to acquire modules that Red Hat hasn't packaged up. If you're going to compile from source, you'll want to get Red Hat's SRPM, install it and peruse the patch sets that they include to see which of them you will want to apply to the CPAN version yourself. I don't recommend this, as the folks at Red Hat, python-lovers though they be, tend to do a decent job on the integration front. Silly question: have you considered the GTK or KDE toolkit interfaces? They tend to be maintained a bit better. Of course, you may be maintaining a legacy application, in which case that advice won't help. -- Aaron Sherman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Senior Systems Engineer and Toolsmith "We had some good machines, but they don't work no more." -Shriekback _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
