Hello,

Even when I try 'fink selfupdate', I get the same error. No matter what command 
I give in fink, I always get the single-line error code: 
arch: /usr/bin/perl5.12 isn't executable

It's not the question of a specific package, I guess. Ever since I upgraded my 
mac to Yosemite, fink always complains with the same error.

My current version of fink is 0.34.2.

You didn’t specify _which_ package is causing the error, so we really can’t 
help you in any detail.  My guess is that you were given an option to use a 
perl5124 version of some package, and that shouldn’t have actually been 
available for 10.10.

Try your install again, if you get asked to select among multiple perl versions 
(-pm) for a package, select the pm5182 variant, since that uses the Perl that 
comes with 10.10.
