[I'd like to subtitle this message "A Sisyphean task...."] I ran into a lot of trouble after my last emails, strange crashes and the like, and I decided to start from scratch with a Perl completely separate from the System Perl 5.8.6 on Tiger, as well as using an updated-via-Apple gcc 4.0.
Using Perlbrew, I built a new Perl (5.8.8) and using cpanm I set up a completely separate module base. I'm realizing (I think) that things are Not Good when you mix gcc 3 and gcc 4, as well as modules and Perls built among them, much less packages compiled through fink. So I'm starting again, and I want to keep everything separate in terms of Perl worlds.... MY QUESTION (sorry): Fink seems to want to be tied to the system Perl. Is there a way for me to install it using gcc 4 and Perl 5.8.8 so that I am bypassing completely any dealing with the System? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try before you buy = See our experts in action!
