Hello.

Im new to freebsd.

when installing neomail, webmail program, it says CGI.pm was too old
i enden up using perl -e shell -MCPAN (im new to this too..)
it asks a few question did some things and ok.
then i realize that perl5.6.1 binary was in the system 


~$ perl -v

This is perl, version 5.005_03 built for i386-freebsd

$ perl5.6.1 -v

This is perl, v5.6.1 built for i386-freebsd


ok. i got 2 perl's here. i wana get rid of the old one. 
pkg_info doesnt report any perl is installed.. (well just p5-DBI) ...

how would i saftly remove perl 5.0005 out of the system?

i guess perl installs things around.. i wana make a 'clean' uninstall..


after uninstalling, i gues i can just do ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl5.6.
/usr/bin/perl?

thanks!
