I'm using linux too (but relative old RH 7.3) and I thought using OpenPKG wersions of softwares would give me a longer updated live. If my thinking is correct, I would like to use OpenPKG version of perl and not the RH73 one.
Could I write a small script that I name /usr/bin/perl with something like: #/bin/sh if [ OPKG-ENV_NOT_SET ]; then /opkg/etc/rc --eval all env fi /opkg/bin/perl $* Also I don't know how to check if OPKG_ENV_NOT_SET. Should grabing opkg in $PATH be enouth ?
