If you have a unixy type system available, the best way it to do % rsync -avz --delete ftp.linux.activestate.com::perl-current bleadperl Then zip or tar up the bleadperl directory, move it to VMS, and build. But bleadperl is what's going to be Perl 5.10, and it might be better to try "maintperl" which is what's going to be 5.8.9. You can get that with % rsync -avz --delete ftp.linux.activestate.com::perl-5.8.x maintperl > >Things have got worse for me here. My problems seem to resolve to: > >1.

Something's wacky here and I think it's your system configuration as I didn't get the time in the future warnings when I built with MMS on HP's Itanium testdrive system. It surprises me that a timezone rule of UTC0 would have daylight saving enabled -- is that correct? In any case, Perl's utime() thinks it's a different time than MMS does. The time on the .exists files is set with: $ perl "-MExtUtils::Command" -e touch foo.dat where foo.dat is the file whose revision time you want to update. -- ________________________________________ Craig A.
