Hallo all. I have just installed the latest FreeBSD version (7.2) perl -v tells me that it is v5.8.9. But I was happy to see that I have /usr/ports/lang/perl5.10 So ... How do I move to the newer Perl - from 5.8.9 to 5.10? Most important - I want it to use threads. I found an old post : "Step-by-step to upgrade Perl" http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2004-April/043400.html Here is how I tried with light changes: i) # cd /usr/ports/lang/perl5.10/ I add this line: # make WITH_THREADS=yes This ends with: Everything is up to date. Type 'make test' to run test suite. So I typed 'make test' and it ended with: All tests successful. u=24.25 s=8.43 cu=1456.43 cs=193.62 scripts=1434 tests=190093 Now I run: # make install This ends with: ===> Installing for perl-threaded-5.10.0_2 ===> perl-threaded-5.10.0_2 conflicts with installed package(s): perl-5.8.9_2 They install files into the same place. Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1). *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/lang/perl5.10. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/lang/perl5.10. Ohhh... I really have it? That's what the installation gave me. How do I upgrade to Perl 5.10 -- ________________________________ Oren Maurer http://meorero.wordpress.com http://www.meorero.org.il _______________________________ # =======================| # Please avoid sending me Word | # or PowerPoint attachments | # =======================| # See: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html
