Yes, but MacPorts should not override the user's settings (i.e. it should test whether PERL5LIB is already set...). One should end up with something like: if [ -n "$PERL5LIB" ]; then PERL5LIB="${PERL5LIB}:/opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl" else export PERL5LIB PERL5LIB="/opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl" fi Also, the modules that overwrite the core modules should be fixed. But there's still the potential problem with binaries and man pages, though. But a directory /opt/local/perl5 can be used for that. Adding /opt/local/perl5/bin to $PATH just before /opt/local/bin would be sufficient. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.org> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
