hey joey. thanks for the response. okay, i reconfigured, recompiled and reinstalled perl using the - -Dotherlibdirs option. my @INC now include: /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.6.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.6.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.6.0 /usr/share/perl/5.6.0 /usr/local/lib/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.6 /usr/lib/perl5/5.005/i386-linux . which is basically a combination of 5.6 and 5.6.1 libs. however, apt-get still bombs on failed compiles on Base.pm. following is the abbreviated results. i've looked at Base.pm, particularly lines 14 - 24 and it looks alright to me (although i admit that i'm probably not the best judge of perfect code). do i just need to uninstall 5.6.1 and revert back to 5.6? # apt-get upgrade Reading Package Lists...
