Actually, that's debatable, as it could just as easily be perl emerged with the minimal flag - which is part of the mental debate I have - is it worth it? if so, is it worth it as a separate ebuild that would need to be maintained in parallel, or as just a use flag invoked version of the current ebuild? The heart of the difference in the two installs lies in what core perl modules are installed. (fwiw, miniperl is something else entirely - it's what perl uses to bootstrap itself) -- -----o()o--------------------------------------------- Michael Cummings | #gentoo-dev, #gentoo-perl Gentoo Perl Dev | on irc.freenode.net -----o()o---------------------------------------------
