It is just as easy (if not easier) to install and configure SquirrelMail
manually. I have SM 1.2.3[cvs] installed on two seperate potato machines
and they both work great.
Any questions, let me know.

I'm attempting to install the squirrelmail package (latest on
squirrelmail's home page, 1.2.2-1) on a production potato server. While I
realize this is a woody/testing package, adding the other required
packages apache-ssl, php4, wwwconfig-common haven't caused any ill
effects. The only roadblock seems to be the perl dependency. I see the
current testing release of perl is 5.6.1-6, and on the potato box it's at
5.005 something. Here's the confusing output:
---
#dpkg -i squirrelmail_1.2.2-1_all.deb
Selecting previously deselected package squirrelmail.
(Reading database ... )
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuraiton of squirrelmail:
squirrelmail depends on perl; however:
Package perl is not installed.
dpkg: erorr processing squirrelmail (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing
#apt-get install perl
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
perl-5.005-base: Conflicts: perl but 5.004.05-2 is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or
specify a solution).

Am I barking up the wrong tree, i.e., must I get this machine updated to
woody first, or is there a way to accomplish my goal?
