perl 5.6.1 is available from here: http://www.cpan.org/src/perl-5.6.1.tar.gz

cd to where you downloaded it and extract it (tar -xvvf perl-5.6.1.tar.gz)

look for the INSTALL file or a readme, and follow instructions, basically:

 rm -f config.sh Policy.sh
 sh Configure -de
 make
 make test
 make install

if you don't have it up and running at this point, paste the messages
you get here.
