It sounds like you have a locally installed version of perl that is broken in some way. I'd have a look at what kind of file /usr/local/bin/perl is; possibly an a.out binary or something. You can disable preconfiguration by editing /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/70debconf -- see shy jo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
