Hi Noah, It's pretty easy to do a forced re-install, but before you do, would you mind sending me the output of the following commands? cd /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils find . -type f -print | sort I'd like to compare the list of files in your ExtUtils directory with the list from my machine. Also, did you originally install Perl from a package or did you build it from source and install it from the /usr/ports/lang/perl5.8 directory?
