your perl configuration is slightly broken. If you look in (probably)

        /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.5/darwin-2level/Config.pm

you should see a couple of lines like this:

        installman1dir='/usr/share/man/man1'
        installman3dir='/usr/share/man/man3'

In mine they're around line 760. The value for installman1dir in yours is broken, I'm guessing. Others may be too.

If this causes alarm you could reinstall perl (in which case I'd recommend doing it with --PREFIX=/usr to get the proper apple /Library paths, but that's just me). I don't think you need to reinstall OS X yet :)

best

will






Is this clear to you, what that means ? Probably the "perl"-link I put in
/usr/bin/ pointing /usr/local/bin/ has not the right rights ?


[markslap:~/.cpan/build/libwww-perl-5.802] mareklap% cd /usr/bin/
[markslap:/usr/bin] mareklap% ls -lF perl
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  19 17 Nov 14:08 perl@ -> /usr/local/bin/perl

hmmmm, looks good ! But I am not a Perl-Unix-Professional as you are :-)

I am very grateful for your help



greetings from Munich - grey out here
