Hi; I'm confused about what Perl I have installed vi MacPorts and what is active and what I can use.
port installed | grep perl5 ack @3.6.0_0+perl5_34 ack @3.7.0_0+perl5_34 (active) docbook2X @0.8.8_11+perl5_34 (active) git @2.39.1_0+credential_osxkeychain+diff_highlight+doc+pcre+perl5_34 git @2.39.2_0+credential_osxkeychain+diff_highlight+doc+pcre+perl5_34 git @2.40.0_0+credential_osxkeychain+diff_highlight+doc+pcre+perl5_34 git @2.40.1_0+credential_osxkeychain+diff_highlight+doc+pcre+perl5_34 git @2.41.0_0+credential_osxkeychain+diff_highlight+doc+pcre+perl5_34 (active) icoutils @0.32.3_1+perl5_34 (active) net-snmp @5.9.1_1+perl5_34+ssl (active) ossp-uuid @1.6.2_13+perl5_34+universal ossp-uuid @1.6.2_13+perl5_34 (active) perl5 @5.34.1_0+perl5_34 (active) perl5.34 @5.34.1_0 (active) perl5.36 @5.36.0_0 perl5.36 @5.36.1_0 (active) po4a @0.66_0+perl5_34 (active) xmltoman @0.4_1+perl5_34 (active) which perl /opt/local/bin/perl perl --version | head -2 | tail -1 This is perl 5, version 34, subversion 1 (v5.34.1) built for darwin-thread-multi-2level It looks like many perl5-based utilities are not yet updated to perl5.36, yet I'd like to use perl5.36 when I'm writing a perl program. I apparently don't understand enough about how to use "port select" even after several readings. On a slightly off-topic question, I'm still trying to replace all "universal" ports with aarch64 ports (native) and when I install and/or upgrade, I always specify "-s". I've only had one problem (so far) with this. Thanks, Ken Wolcott
