Our sysadmin here brought our development machine up to OpenVMS 7.3, and
with it installed CSWS (Compaq's supported version of Apache). (Yay!)
When he did this, he installed Compaq's perl kit, so that machine now has a
new PERL_ROOT. Our production Perl tree, which was built from sources, has
about a gazillion modules installed, that I'd like to move over to this new
perl tree in as painless a way as possible.
Can I just do a copy something like this
$ copy OLD_PERL_ROOT:[LIB.SITE_PERL...]*.*;
NEW_PERL_ROOT:[LIB.SITE_PERL...]
or are there other files that need to be copied?
Is the risk of hosing things substantial enough that I should just install
all the modules from sources again into the new tree?
The versions are the same, 5.005_03, so moving files seems plausible. But
I'd really hate to mess things up.
