For what can I use OpenPKG perl ? Only for scripts written by me ? And when OpenPKG upgrades perl-5.8.5 I still can get the same problem you did. In practice I see all scripts I get from live projects starting with: #!/usr/bin/perl So I can not make this projects use OpenPKG perl because my OS needs his one version ? When I get a project that's written in perl I mostly see as requirement something like perl >= 5.6 or perl >= 5.8 not thinks like: perl= perl-5.8.3_from_RH_9.0.
