Hi Tony,
I’m in a similar situation to you, but it just has to come back to being careful with what I update and when. RPM is great and easy, but the price you pay is often situations like this. You sound like a pretty cluey guy, so I’m sure you already understand this. James.

Subject: Re: [otrs] Perl CGI version problem I am guessing there’s no resolution to this. My point is this: I do not want to run anything but .rpm’s. Yes, I know how to, and can utilize CPAN, but chose not to do so. If I run “yum upgrade” or “up2date” on my systems with .rpm installed Perl packages, any CPAN update I do, may potentially become overwritten. RedHat/CentOS systems are designed this way for a reason, ease of updates. Another problem with CPAN: it may decide that it needs a newer version of Perl or other module than what I have installed. Again, I want to keep my stock RPM’s. My two cents: don’t market something for CentOS/RedHat Enterprise Linux server systems if they do not work 100% with stock RPM installs. NOWHERE during the installation does it mention that my Perl::CGI version is too low to use mod_perl. I didn’t find out until I ran the Support Assessment tool under the admin section. Had I been forewarned that I’d have to use CPAN, maybe then I could have opted for another OS. But then, I wouldn’t be using RHEL/CentOS RPM’s then would I? </rant> Thank you for your time, Tony E.
