Well, I installed Perl 5.8.0 manually. On my old iMac, that worked fine
and system-perl580 worked the first time.
I installed Perl 5.8.1 on my iBook, and after find wouldn't recognize it,
I 'make && make test && sudo make install'ed perl 5.8.0.
I tried just now doing "fink install system-perl580" and this is what I
got (Delphi is my machine name.):


[Delphi:/] cbowns% fink install system-perl580
sudo /sw/bin/fink  install system-perl580
Password:
dyld: perl Undefined symbols:
_Perl_safefree
_Perl_safemalloc
_Perl_saferealloc
_Perl_sv_2pv
_perl_call_sv
_perl_eval_sv
_perl_get_sv
[Delphi:/] cbowns%

This doesn't sound good.
In the make test, it spit out:

Failed 2 test scripts out of 657, 99.70% okay.
### Since not all tests were successful, you may want to run some of

DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH; cd t; ./perl harness
###   export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH; cd t; ./perl
harness
### for csh-style shells, like tcsh; or for traditional/modern
### Bourne-style shells, like bash, ksh, and zsh, respectively.

Sorry to ask you about perl issues; I was just trying to get a more current perl install working with fink, and so far, it hasn't been real pleasant.

Do you mean that you installed Perl 5.8.0 manually? Then yes, you need
system-perl580.

and perl crashes.


 What's going on? Do I need to install system-perl580?
