I installed 5.10.1 into a different place and it seems OK. I use that one by default but can explicitly call 5.10.0 from the command line. I actually wanted to start with a clean set of modules and explitly install those that I wanted (had a lot of modules I didnt use) so that worked OK. One thing that concerns me about installing to the same place - what happens to modules that you have isntalled in "site" but now are in "perl". WIll you end up with both. "autodie" (became core in 5.10.1) is an obvious case, are there others _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
