This problem isn't associated with any particular perlmod, but is a result of a problem that started in fink-0.36.0. Removing file-path-pm5123 will avoid the collision, but you'll have files installed in the wrong place in file-path-pm5124. Start by doing something along the lines of dpkg -S 5.12.3 | grep 5124 and "fink rebuild" any packages that show up in that list so that you don't have mis-built pm5124 modules laying around and potentially confusing the builds. Make sure to do a "fink rebuild file-path-pm5124" afterwards, in any case. When I had this issue on a few perlmods, using "fink rebuild <package>" resolved it for me. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Shape the Mobile Experience: Free Subscription Software experts and developers: Be at the forefront of tech innovation.
