I was able to upgrade to 6.2 using MH's excellent perl5.8.6 tarball. Thought I'd try again with 6.5. Ignored the perl dependency on install (rpm) and then tried to run by directing slimserver to perl5.8.6 as MH instructs:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] slimserver]# /usr/local/bin/perl5.8.6 slimserver.pl The following modules failed to load: DBD::mysql Digest::SHA1 YAML::Syck To download and compile them, please run: /usr/local/slimserver/Bin/build-perl-m odules.pl DBD::mysql Digest::SHA1 YAML::Syck Then ran the module builder: [EMAIL PROTECTED] slimserver]# /usr/local/slimserver/Bin/build-perl-modules.pl Welcome to the Slim Devices perl module installer. These packages are needed for SlimServer to function. You will need a C compiler (gcc), make, and perl installed. You will need development libraries for MySQL. eg: libmysqlclient You will need development libraries for expat. eg: libexpat1-dev *** Ignore any warnings about AppConfig. *** Please enter a perl binary to use (defaults to /usr/bin/perl) This must be the same perl binary that you ran this program with --> /usr/local/ bin/perl5.8.6 Please enter a directory to download files to --> /tmp Downloads will use lwp to fetch tarballs.
