Hello Peter,
It seems that you have the same problem that I had. Did you tell 5.8.2 to
replace the perl that came with Panther? If not you might want to try the following
and see what you get:
perl -V<CR> (Btw. that is a capital V)
you should see something like the below along the end of the output:
@INC:
/System/Library/Perl/5.8.1/darwin-thread-multi-2level
Whereas if you give the following a try:
/usr/local/bin/perl -V<CR>
you should see something like this along the end of the output:
@INC:
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/darwin-2level
So... if you get results that somehow equal the above it means that you have
two versions of perl installed.
To install the new CPAN to the right perl you need to give it the right
location:
sudo /usr/local/bin/perl -MCPAN -e shell<CR>
And from herein out everything should compile just fine.
thanks
