Promise and curse of the base install. I wished I simply could wipe perl
and install it from scratch; but since it does belong to the base, I
wouldn't know how.
I have of course removed the .perl stuff, but that's not everything. Some
config is written in /usr/libdata respectively /usr/local at your initial
call of cpan, respectively the o conf init.
Uwe
for the record, I rather tried this. I built a NEW version of perl
from src and used all different locations. When I tried to run MCPAN
on this version, it fails the exact same way. So I wouldnt waste any
time trying that :)
