turns out the errors i was getting with cpan were due to the busy server i picked as a download site. i downloaded perl 5.6.1 manually and it works nicely now
however, up2date is still busted and when i type "ls -l /usr/lib/libgtk*" i get this: ls: /usr/lib/libgtk*: No such file or directory this has gotta be the problem, but how do i fix it? thanks for the help. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Crawford" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2002 3:54 PM Subject: Re: rpm dependency.....
