Yeah, I think it would be a good thing too. I started a mod_perl fink a while ago, but didn't finish it. One question was whether it should just be a DSO, or a static build including apache. I also have a perl 5.6.1 fink install that replaces the Apple 5.6.0 install. It's been useful for me when I get new machines, but for obvious reasons it hasn't been accepted into fink's collections. -Ken ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
