Except that this isn't what's happening; the new perl is ignoring /usr/lib/perl5. (E.g., I couldn't install netstd the other day because it couldn't find DebianNet.pm--which is in /usr/lib/perl5--until I put a symlink in /usr/lib/perl5/5.005. Can someone give a concise explanation of the rationale behind that? Mike Stone
