We always use /usr/lib/perl5.
Yes, sorry, confused with Python (which is in /usr/lib64/python). Nevertheless, the logic still applies to Perl, because every package (even those that only contain pure Perl code) has a .packlist file under /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.7/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/ (this one for x86_64) Hence, and only because of that, Perl packages are all arch-specific (= never noarch). The .packlist is not critical though, and that's why some perl packages may work even if it's not the correct package architecture, if they only contain pure Perl code. cheers - -- -o) Pascal Bleser http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/ /\\ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _\_v The more things change, the more they stay insane. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDxt8Ar3NMWliFcXcRAtl7AJ4h6aK+UxxJPjEgUGp9ErzmkPU5xQCePgEj 6Gb/gel0IwjJ/eUXJxARx60= =QlXx -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
