is this a Good Thing considering that any compiled modules previous to 5.008 are not binary-compatible? how does perl react? (segfault? undocumented? undefined?) --jerry btw sorry i missed the apache-test talk, i had last-minute car trouble -----Original Message----- From: mjd-perl-pm@plover.com To: phl@lists.pm.org Sent: 9/30/03 8:00 AM Subject: Perl 5.8.1 and @INC It appears from casual testing that when you configure 5.8.1, it looks in your old site_perl library directory for older subdirectories, and arranges for all of them to be listed in @INC, in reverse chronological order. I installed 5.8.1 yesterday, and its @INC is: /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.1/i586-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/i586-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i586-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.7.3 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.7.2 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl . So you won't have to reinstall all your modules. - **Majordomo list services provided by PANIX <URL:http://www.panix.com>** **To Unsubscribe, send "unsubscribe phl" to majordomo@lists.pm.org** ************************************************************************** This e-mail and any files transmitted with it may contain privileged or confidential information.
