Subject: RE: DESTROY (perl experts please) I don't seem to get the same reply back when I apt-cache search for the packages. Are my sources.list wrong for potato?
Man, I just don't get that list of perl stuff when I apt-cache search grep for perl. Maybe my sources are not what they should be: deb http://spidermonkey.helixcode.com/distributions/debian unstable main deb http://spidermonkey.helixcode.com/evolution/distributions/Debian ./ deb ftp://http.us.debian.org/debian/ potato main contrib non-free deb-src ftp://http.us.debian.org/debian/ potato main deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US potato/non-US main deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US potato/non-US main All I get is: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/apt> apt-cache search perl | grep 5.6 perl-5.6 - Larry Wall's Practical Extracting and Report Language. perl-5.6-base - The Pathologically Eclectic Rubbish Lister See Steve's return below... ? Any advice? Thanks!
